TANGY (NOT SWEET) TARTAR SAUCE

Tangy (Not Sweet) Tartar Sauce image

This the tartar sauce my mom made growing up, no sweet relish here! The pickle juice replaces lemon juice for acidity and tang. So simple and worth the little bit of time. (I don't like sweet pickles in my potato salad either!)

TANGY TARTAR SAUCE (MADE WITH DILL PICKLES, NOT SWEET)

Tangy Tartar Sauce (Made With Dill Pickles, Not Sweet) image

This tartar sauce is made with dill pickles, or dill pickle relish, instead of sweet pickle relish, as is common with many other recipes. The flavor is bright and fresh, without being overly sweet. I make it with Best Foods/Hellmans light mayo, so it is not too heavy of a condiment, and the kids can have a good portion without turning their healthy baked fish into an unhealthy meal.
