Thanks for the great recipe!! I did not have onion flakes so I subbed in a dashr or two of onion powder... I also did not have parsley so I left it out... What a great taste... This one is not for the ones that like sweet tartar sauce... Has a little bite, but excellent quality...

This tartar sauce is great! I used both mayo and salad dressing mixed evenly. Thanks for the great recipe! It is much better than the one I had been using!

Excellent! I did not have dill pickles or dill relish, so used sweet pickle relish instead....it was really good!

O.K., I'm a die-hard ALWAYS make from scratch never purchase store-bought tartar sauce connoisseur. I've always preferred a sweeter sauce, one made with Miracle Whip & sweet relish-very basic. Never really cared for mayo based sauces as they were always terribly bland with little body . . . until this one. Absolutely wonderful. Used my small processor. Used dried parsley instead of fresh. Fresh lemon juice is key. I promise you won't be disappointed! I finished off what little was left as a pretzel dip this evening. It didn't even last the night. Enjoy!

Glad to hear someone abhors sweet relish in tartar sauce. I make it the exact same way, except I use a squirt of ketchup instead of the Worcestershire sauce, I will try it your way next time. Nothing beats homemade tartar sauce, the stuff in the jars does not compare!

Best tartar sauce I've ever had. I used mayonnaise, fresh onion (Texas 1015 sweet), and dill relish, and left out the fresh parsley as I didn't have any. The Worcestershire sauce added just the right touch of kick to the flavor. My three-year-old loved it, too, and wanted to eat it by itself with a spoon. I'll never buy storebought tartar sauce again - no reason to, as this is so good and so simple. Thanks for sharing, PanNan!

This is a wonderful recipe for tartar sauce! I made this today and will be keeping it in my fridge to serve with fish in the next few days, I also used onion powder in place of flakes. I think it will only get better with refrigeration time over the next couple of days. This will replace my old recipe, it is just wonderful. thanks for sharing PanNan!...Kittencal

Wonderful! We are NOT a Miracle Whip family so we went with good old Best Foods Mayo. Just super. I used finely minced onion.
