Tartar Sauce image

This may be more of a rémoulade than a tartar sauce, but we've been making it this way since I came to the Oyster Bar. Has it changed at all since 1974? There's no way for me to know-but I doubt it. Be sure the hard-cooked egg and potato are cold when you make this.

Yield Makes about 2 3/4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons chopped dill pickle
1 tablespoon chopped onion
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1 1/2 teaspoons chopped green bell pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons nonpareil capers, drained
1 teaspoon chopped pitted green olives
1 small red-skinned potato, boiled until tender and chilled
1 large egg, hard-cooked and chilled
2 1/4 cups mayonnaise
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning

Steps:

  • Put the pickle, onion, parsley, bell pepper, capers, and olives into the bowl of a food processor. Pulse, scraping the bowl a couple of times, to make a 1/8-inch dice. Transfer to a mixing bowl.
  • Peel the potato, chop it coarsely, and measure out ⅓ cup, packing it into the cup. Peel and coarsely chop the egg. Put both into the food processor and pulse, scraping the bowl a couple of times, until finely chopped but not minced. Scrape into the bowl with the pickle mixture.
  • Add the mayonnaise, lemon juice, mustard, and Old Bay. Whisk or stir until well combined. Transfer to a covered container and refrigerate until needed. It will keep for about 1 week.
