Tartar sauce is a creamy condiment traditionally used as a companion to seafood dishes. Originating from French cuisine, it typically consists of mayonnaise or a similar base mixed with finely chopped pickles, capers, herbs such as dill or parsley, and occasionally lemon juice or mustard for added tang. Variations might include ingredients like onions or garlic for extra flavor. While tartar sauce provides a satisfying richness and zing, its healthiness depends on portion size and ingredients. It is relatively high in calories and fat due to its mayonnaise base, but it also offers small amounts of vitamins and antioxidants from its pickle and herb components. Homemade versions can be crafted with lighter alternatives, making the sauce a more balanced choice. Tartar sauce enhances taste and texture while offering an indulgence best enjoyed in moderation.
