Special Notes

This copycat McDonald's tartar sauce captures the tangy, creamy flavor of the original. The combination of mayonnaise and pickles creates the perfect consistency. The key is to let the sauce chill for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. This sauce is perfect for fish and seafood dishes. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week. For extra flavor, you can add different herbs or spices.
