TARTAR SAUCE FROM SCRATCH



Tartar Sauce from Scratch image

You see all these chefs on the tele these days showing you how to separate eggs quickly using only your hands - letting the yolk sit in your palm while the white falls through your fingers. Well apart from hating the feeling of slimy egg on my hands, my mum always told me not to touch the egg white as it gave you warts! I'm not sure how true that is, but I still separate my eggs the old fashioned way using the shells - so there! Also, not one to waste anything, I always try to make meringue at the same time as mayonnaise, or I put them in a jar in the fridge and make egg white omelete for my son Sam during the week. It's something he likes :)

Time 20m

Yield 40 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 egg yolks
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 garlic clove, crushed
1/2 lemon juice
1 liter sunflower oil
2 teaspoons capers, chopped
2 teaspoons chives, chopped
2 teaspoons cornichons, chopped
2 teaspoons horseradish
2 teaspoons tarragon, chopped (optional, my husband isn't over keen on it so I often leave it out)
1 cornichon, sliced and fanned (optional decoration)

Steps:

  • Whisk the Egg Yolks with the Mustard, Garlic until they thicken up and lighten a little.
  • Continue whisking while slowly adding the Oil - drip by drip at first, then I drizzle the Oil slowly down the inside of the bowl until the mayonaise starts to thicken.
  • When the mayonaise starts to get very thick, slacken it off with some of the Lemon Juice.
  • Continue to add the Oil and thin down again with the Lemon Juice until all the Oil has been used. You may not need all of the Lemon Juice.
  • Stir in all the other ingredients to the Mayo to make the Tartar Sauce.
  • Serve in a bowel of your choice, emelished with one whole cornichon, sliced 5 times lengthways almost through to the end and fanned out a little.

TARTAR SAUCE



Tartar Sauce image

I haven't purchased tartar sauce in many years. We do not like any hint of sweetness, preferring the combination of dill pickle, lemon, onion and Worcestershire to flavor the sauce. This will keep a long time in the refrigerator. Note to World Tour participants - this recipe is included in the British category. Similar sauce recipes (making the mayonnaise from scratch, of course) go back to Medieval times, and have been found in British books as early as 1685. It's also wonderful served with fish and chips, if you aren't very fond of malt vinegar.

Categories     Sauces

Time 5m

Yield 2 T, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/4 cups mayonnaise or 1 1/4 cups Miracle Whip
1 medium dill pickle (or 1/4 cup dill relish)
2 sprigs parsley
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon dried onion flakes (or fresh)
1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

Steps:

  • Mix all together in the food processor and pulse for about 10 seconds until finely chopped, but not smooth.
  • Best if refrigerated for an hour before use.
  • Note: Can be made without the food processor, using dill relish or finely minced pickle.
  • Lasts quite a while in the refrigerator.

Tips:

  • To achieve the best flavor, use fresh ingredients whenever possible.
  • If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs instead. Just be sure to use half the amount of dried herbs as you would fresh herbs.
  • For a tangy flavor, add a squeeze of lemon juice or a splash of vinegar to the tartar sauce.
  • If you like a creamy tartar sauce, add a dollop of mayonnaise or sour cream.
  • For a spicy tartar sauce, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a dash of hot sauce.
  • Serve tartar sauce with fried or grilled fish, shrimp, or chicken. It can also be used as a dipping sauce for vegetables or crackers.

Conclusion:

Tartar sauce is a versatile sauce that can be used in a variety of ways. It is easy to make at home with fresh ingredients, and it can be customized to your own taste preferences. Whether you like it tangy, creamy, or spicy, there is a tartar sauce recipe out there for you. So next time you are looking for a sauce to serve with your fish or seafood, give tartar sauce a try. You might be surprised at how much you enjoy it!
