This buffalo sauce is all about bold, punchy heat balanced with rich, creamy body — the kind of condiment you'll want to drizzle on everything from roasted cauliflower to crispy tofu bites. Garlic-infused olive oil and smoked paprika build a deep, savory backbone, while a hit of cayenne and classic hot sauce keep the heat sharp and lively. A splash of apple cider vinegar cuts through the richness for balance, and a shower of fresh chives, parsley, and dill at the end adds brightness and color. Everything comes together in one saucepan in just a few minutes, whisked until glossy and fully emulsified. It reheats beautifully, so it's easy to keep a jar on hand for weeknight dinners or game-day spreads. This one's a great fit for a vegetarian kitchen, no fuss required.

Remove the pan from the heat. Whisk in the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, smoked paprika, cayenne, and salt until fully incorporated and the sauce is creamy and emulsified.
