How to make tartar sauce with pickles
1. Prepare the ingredients
Start off by chopping the onion as small as possible. You want to get it really fine. This is one of those ingredients that you can omit if you don’t like an onion.
I really like to use red onion because of its mild flavor. You might want to try shallots and if you do let me know how it was!
Next, you want to finely dice the dill pickles. One of the things that sets this tartar sauce apart from all the others is the pickles I use.
If you have never had the Claussen dill pickle they are incredible and I think they add a great flavor to the tarter sauce with a little bit of a garlic touch.
Take the seeds out of the center of the pickle by taking a spoon and dragging it through the center and scrape the seeds out.
2. Mix the ingredients
Squeeze the lemon juice out of the lemon into a separate bowl to make sure that you don’t add lemon seeds to the tartar sauce recipe.
Add all the ingredients into a small bowl and give it a stir. You want to be somewhat delicate so you don’t mush the pickles.
3. Refrigerate the tartar sauce
Take the mixed tartar sauce and put in into your fridge. You could serve it after you prepared it but it is better when it’s chilled.
You can store it in your fridge for a few days but I would not go too long. The acid from the lemon will breakdown the ingredients.
One of the best parts of making your own homemade tartar sauce is that you are making it without all the preservatives. That’s one of my favorite parts of cooking, you’re making things fresh and not adding all that junk that companies add to make things last a long time.
