Tartare Sauce

Tartare Sauce
17 min · 17 min active · makes ~255 g · Medium · French

A classic cold sauce built on mayonnaise, with chopped gherkins, drained capers, diced shallot, and flat-leaf parsley stirred through, then sharpened with Dijon mustard and lemon juice. Rich, tangy, and flecked with green, it has a creamy body punctuated by the bite of the pickles and the brightness of the herbs — a well-balanced tartare sauce that holds its character without overwhelming whatever it accompanies.
