#36 Tartar Sauce

This is a handy recipe to have on hand because we love tartar sauce but do not use it very often. Most of the time store-bought sits in the fridge and reaches the expiration date before it is used. Having this recipe means I can make only what we need, when fish is on the menu.

Tartar Sauce
In a small bowl combine 1 cup mayo, 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, 1 chopped pickle and 1 tablespoon capers. Season with salt and pepper to taste....I also added a 1/2 tablespoon of sugar to give it a little tanginess. Refrigerate for 1 hour before serving. Makes one cup.



 I chopped the capers a bit cause I didn't think my kids would eat it with those little capers whole...I had to disquise them.

Tartar sauce was great! Kids liked it and it tasted the same as the store-bought, except the ingredients were fresh. Which means it doesn't keep for very long...only about three days. So make just enough to use up.
