Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup (240 g / 8.5 oz) mayonnaise
  • ¼ cup (60 g / 2.12 oz) dill relish
  • 1 tablespoon (15 ml / 0.5 fl oz) freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • ½ teaspoon (2.5 ml / 0.1 fl oz) Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon (15 ml / 0.5 fl oz) dried parsley leaves
  • 1 teaspoon (5 ml / 0.2 fl oz) dried minced onions
  • Salt and ground black pepper, to taste
  • Pro-Tips for the Best Tartar Sauce
  • For the absolute best flavor, make this sauce a day in advance. The extra time in the fridge allows the to marry beautifully.
  • Swap the dried herbs for fresh! Use 1 tablespoon (15 ml / 0.5 fl oz) of finely chopped fresh dill or parsley and 1 tablespoon (15 ml / 0.5 fl oz) of minced shallot for a brighter, more vibrant taste.
  • For a spicy kick, stir in a pinch of cayenne pepper or a few dashes of your favorite sugar-free hot sauce.

Method
 

  1. In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, dill relish, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, dried parsley, and dried minced onions.
  2. Stir until all are well incorporated.
  3. Season with salt and ground black pepper to taste.
  4. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld and deepen.
  5. Serve chilled. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
  6. Add a tablespoon of drained capers for an extra briny pop of flavor that pairs wonderfully with seafood.
