Polish Tartar Sauce

"Very zippy and flavorful. This is what I ended up with when I had a recipe in a Polish cookbook with choices of ingredients but no amounts. Turned out pretty good if I do say so myself. Use to garnish fish, pate or other cold meats. **A variation that I didn't try is to add 2 ground or finely chopped hard boiled eggs.**"

  1. i liked this but it was a bit chunky...i think next time i will blend it before serving.
     
  2. Very tasty tartar sauce and quite unusual. The horseradish gave it a nice fresh kick, and was offset by the sweet of the sugar in the recipe. We enjoyed this with grilled salmon.
     
  3. I love tartar sauce and this is a really good recipe for it. I didn't put in the mushrooms but added some parsley and a shallot. It was delicious and DH and I really enjoyed it. A keeper. Made for ZWT4.
     
  4. This is really a great combo of flavors, I used finely chopped Yum Yum pickles but did omit the marinated mushrooms as I didn't have any at the time, not sure if adding them in would have improved or made that much of a difference in the flavor, I did use the capers and the chives, I made this 24 hours in advance which only improves the flavor, thanks for sharing Engrossed!...Kitten:)
     
  5. I made a half recipe of this pretty much as written for me, but made a 2nd reworked half to better suit DH who is a bit of a purist & only uses a sauce like this for his smoked salmon & trout. I left marinated mushrooms out of both. For mine I used the hard-boiled egg pushed thru a sieve & found I liked the addition. For DH I dbld the mustard (Dijon for his) & left out the pickles. We were both happy, but he still prefers his reg stuff called Gravlax Sosa. The beauty of a recipe like this is that pers pref & the palate can dictate any chgs. Thx for posting this. I love to try Czech & Polish recipes.

I love to cook and share good food with other people. I have a very large collection of cookbooks. I used to enjoy being able to look up recipes on Zaar by ingredients I had on hand. I miss the Zaar tag game community. Everyone was so nice, and it was super fun. Ah, the good ol' days.
