Notes
- Homemade tartar sauce will stay good in the fridge for about two weeks. Make sure to store it in an airtight container. Ingredients may separate a bit - if they do, just stir it up before serving.
- Sweet or dill relish may be used instead of pickles. Use less of it - around 1/2 cup, and omit the pickle juice. And if using sweet relish, omit the honey.
- Chopped sweet pickles or bread and butter pickles can be used in place of dill - omit the honey in this case.
- Other ingredient substitutions: sugar may be used instead of honey, finely chopped onion can be used in place of green onion, Worcestershire sauce may be used instead of soy sauce.
