HOMEMADE TARTAR SAUCE

Homemade tartar sauce is easy to make and better than anything you can buy at a store. It’s great with grilled, baked or pan-fried fish, and adds a lot of flavor to our Wild Salmon Patties or Tuna Cakes recipe on our Facebook clients’ page. Sauces always take food to the next level, making it more appealing and special. It’s one more reason to love healthy fat! Dill pickles are used, because there is no added sugar – unlike sweet pickle relish. There are two recipe options, depending on your tastes and what you have in the pantry.

Serving information: Makes 16 servings. One serving equals 2 Tbsp (recipe #1) or 3 Tbsp (recipe #2) and covers your fat for one meal.
