Chef's notes
Russian dressing is similar to Thousand Island dressing, in that they are both made with a mayonnaise and ketchup base. The key distinction between the two sauces is that Russian dressing contains horseradish, which gives it a little kick, whereas Thousand Island dressing tends to be a bit sweeter and also sometimes calls for chopped hard boiled eggs.
