Notes

  • Storage tip: Tartar sauce can be stored in the fridge for 3 to 4 days. You also might notice it separates slightly after sitting in the fridge, so just give it a quick stir before serving. As for freezing, Tartar sauce doesn’t freeze well because the mayonnaise base can separate when thawed, resulting in a watery and grainy texture.
  • Make it unique: Feel free to add other ingredients like capers, diced jalapeños, or fresh herbs like chives or parsley for a unique twist!
  • Watch ingredient labels when you're buying relish. Some brands have unnecessary ingredients and food dyes (though a little turmeric for color is fine). If you can't find any clean brands in your supermarket, then I do recommend dicing dill pickles and making your own relish!
