Tartar Sauce Recipe
The BEST tartar sauce recipe! A quick and flavorful tartar sauce that's perfect for your next fresh fish recipe!
Ingredients
- ¼ - ½ cup Claussen pickle spears
- 1 cup mayo
- 3 tablespoons fresh dill chopped
- 1 tablespoon sweet yellow onion diced
- 1 teaspoon garlic minced
- 1-2 teaspoons lemon juice
- 1-2 teaspoons dijon mustard
- kosher salt and ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prep Pickles: In order to remove some of the excess water from the pickles (no one wants watery tartar sauce), lay each spear on its side on a cutting board and cut off the seeds. Cut remaining part of the pickle into small pieces and then using either a cheesecloth or clean hands, squeeze out as much remaining liquid as possible.
- Blend: Add prepared pickles to food processor along with 1 cup mayo, 3 tablespoons fresh dill, 1 tablespoon sweet yellow onion, 1 teaspoon garlic, 1-2 teaspoons lemon juice and 1-2 teaspoons dijon mustard. Blend until consistency is smooth (don't over-blend).
- Taste + Adjust: Taste and add any kosher salt and ground black pepper, as-needed, as well as any additional dill, lemon, etc.
- Serve: we love serving this with our oven baked cod fillets - enjoy!
Notes
- Pickles: I highly recommend the Claussen pickles we used for testing, their flavor is light and bright and works perfectly in this recipe. Of course, use what you have available if you can't!
- Yield: make approx. 1 1/4 cup
