Tartare Sauce

by TAG Editor

Tartare sauce, though smooth, also provides a tangy contrast to dishes it accompanies.

Ingredients:
2 egg yolks
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 1/4 cup groundnut oil
1 1/4 cup olive oil
Juice of ½ a lemon
1 tablespoon fresh chopped tarragon
1 tablespoon capers
1 tablespoon diced gherkins
2 tablespoon chopped parsley

Beat the 2 egg yolks, dijon mustard. Add salt and pepper. Whisk in groundnut oil and olive oil, a little at a time as it thickens. Stir in lemon juice. Incorporate tarragon, capers, gherkins, and parsley. Adjust seasoning.
