How to Make Sweet Onion Sauce
This Subway copycat sweet onion sauce begins by adding some sugar and 2 types of vinegar to a sauce pan. You can swap out the sugar for a sugar substitute if you prefer to reduce the calories for this sauce. Now comes the flavor. You add in some Dijon mustard, sesame oil and cornstarch.

Next is all the dry ingredients. It’s even more flavor! There is a good list of them but they all help make the wonderful flavor of this sauce. There is dry mustard powder, salt, poppy seeds, celery seed, onion powder, paprika, pepper, and garlic powder. Whisk together and bring it all to a simmer. Simmer for 5 minutes while whisking.
