Tartar Sauce

I've been wanting to post my tartar sauce recipe for a very long time.  But, I don't have a recipe for tartar sauce.  It's one of those things that I eye-ball, adding a little of this and a little more of that.  Well, I finally took the time to write down and measure the ingredients.  Homemade tartar sauce is so easy, tastes better and is far more economical.  We haven't purchased the stuff in the grocery store for years.

Tartar Sauce

• 1 C mayonnaise
• 2 T finely minced onion
• 2 T finely minced dill pickles
• optional: 1 T chopped capers

Stir all ingredients together and refrigerate at least 30 minutes before serving for flavors to combine.

If you want to save yourself some time chopping, you can place all your ingredients in your food processor (minus the mayo) and process until you've reached your desired consistency.  Then stir in your mayonnaise, and voila!  Tartar sauce!
