Yellow Mustard Ballpark Sauce proves that the little things on the table can carry a lot of American character. Hot dogs, pretzels, burgers, and baseball. Across the country, recipes like this help define the meal: brightening sandwiches, dressing salads, crowning burgers, spooning over biscuits, or turning a simple spread into something people remember.
