Whisk @mayonnaise{1%cup}(240 mL) with @chili sauce{1/3%cup}(80 mL; the ketchup-style bottle, not sriracha), @prepared horseradish{2%Tbs}(drained), @Worcestershire sauce{1%tsp}, @sweet paprika{1%tsp}, @cayenne{1/8%tsp} and @lemon juice{2%tsp} until it is one even coral colour. The horseradish is the line between this and Thousand Island, which is sweet pickle relish and no heat; a Reuben made with Thousand Island tastes like a mistake and people can tell from the first bite.

Fold @dill pickle{2%Tbs}(minced fine, squeezed dry), @yellow onion{1%Tbs}(grated on a microplane, juice and all) and @chives{1%Tbs}(sliced thin) into @&(~1)base{}. Squeeze the pickle or the dressing goes watery by the second day.

Chill @&(~1)dressing{} for at least ~chill{1%hr} before it goes near anything. It is flat straight out of the bowl and right an hour later, and it keeps two weeks covered in the fridge.
