Tartar Sauce
Until last year, I had to go to my favorite “Fish & Chip” joint to enjoy this meal. Somehow, I never really thought about making them myself. There’s really no reason for it… I just simply didn’t make it at home. When I started this cooking website, I still didn’t have any intention of making my own Beer Battered Fish & Chips but the reality of showcasing my recipes gave me enough confidence and a good reason to give it a try. “Wow!” was my reaction when I made it the first time. Obviously since then, I’ve been making this dish whenever I want it at home.
Let’s go back to my favorite place where I enjoyed their “Fish & Chips”. Although it was well prepared, there was one thing I never really liked over there and it was their Tartar Sauce. I was actually quite surprised that they couldn’t make this simple condiment properly…
My motto is “Why buy it when you can make it at home”, right? As long as I can remember, I’ve been making my own Tartar Sauce. My mother and father made their own sauce and before that it was my grandmother. Their recipes were quite easy; Mayo and Sweet Relish together… voilà! When I was younger, I was making my mother’s sauce but as my taste buds evolved, I started making it slightly more complex than hers to the point that hers and mine are not very close to each other anymore.
There are so many versions of this sauce out there but I have to say, mine is quite yummy! With a few ingredients, you can turn this simple sauce into a great accompaniment for your “Fish & Chips” or any other dish that needs Tartar Sauce like fried oysters, Filet-O-Fish Sandwich, clam strips, egg salad, French Fries, etc.
Bon Appétit!
