Method
Amounts in the steps are for the original 6 servings. Use the ingredient list for your amounts.
Finely chop the pickle, then squeeze it in a paper towel so the sauce stays thick, not watery.
Stir the mayonnaise, chopped pickle, dill, lemon juice, capers (if using), Dijon and pepper together in a small bowl until evenly mixed.
Taste and adjust: more lemon for tangier, more pickle for more crunch. Serve right away or chill until needed.
Tips
- Sweet pickle relish works in place of dill pickles if you like a sweeter, diner-style tartar sauce.
- The flavor gets even better after 30 minutes in the fridge, so make it first and then cook the fish.
- Keeps for up to 5 days in a sealed jar in the fridge.
