Tartar Sauce

Tartar Sauce

Everyday

Tartar sauce is a creamy condiment classically made from mayonnaise blended with chopped pickles, capers, and fresh herbs like dill or parsley. Its tangy, briny flavor profile complements fried seafood dishes such as fish and chips by contrasting crisp textures with rich creaminess. While low in protein and fiber, it contributes notable fat and calorie content from its mayonnaise base, and may contain allergens including eggs or gluten depending on specific recipes.
