Fresh Tartar Sauce
Posted: Wednesday, April 22, 2009
1 cup mayonnaise
The essence of delicately-flavored soft-shell crabs can be overpowered by heavy sauces, so use sauces sparingly. Homemade is better than store-bought, so if you like tartar sauce with soft-shell crabs, perhaps on a sandwich, make your own.
2 tablespoons sweet pickle relish
2 teaspoons minced sweet onion
1 teaspoon minced capers
3/4 teaspoon fresh minced dill or 1/4 teaspoon dried
Pinch cayenne pepper
Salt to taste
Combine ingredients in a small mixing bowl. Refrigerate at least one hour before using.
Store leftovers in refrigerator for up to one month.
