TIPS AND TRICKS FOR MAKING VEGAN TARTAR SAUCE
- Choose your favorite brand of vegan mayo for this. I’ve used both the Hellman’s version and the Chosen Foods vegan mayo with great results, and I think that any vegan mayo will be totally delicious.
- Either dill relish or sweet pickle relish work equally well in tartar sauce. Using sweet relish will add a little bit of sweetness to the sauce, while dill relish makes it more savory.
- Fresh lemon juice is always the best option.
- Fresh dill is amazing in this sauce, and you can use any extra in salads or sandwiches throughout the week.
- Add as much salt and pepper (or as little) as you like.
- Store your sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to use. It should stay fresh for 3-5 days. I find that since this recipe is so quick and simple, I typically make it right when I need it.
