With its wonderful combination of tangy flavors and its creamy and crunchy texture, tartar sauce is the perfect companion for your fish dishes. Trust us: you’ll never want to miss it!
Our version keeps the ingredients to a minimum and has a delicious, balanced flavor. Having said that, there are a few variations of tartar sauce, which may or not include mustard, herbs, lemon juice, or even hot sauce. Feel free to play around a bit with the ingredients!
There is very little that can go wrong with the ingredients shown here. However, if you don’t have savory cornichons or gherkins, try to replace them with other savory (not sweet!) pickles. Using sweet pickles will completely change the flavor of the sauce, so we do not recommend using them.
