This simple and nutritious tartar sauce recipe is lightly fermented to improve digestibility and probiotic value. Ready in minutes!
After seeing my recent Healthy Hushpuppies recipe, I've gotten quite a few requests for a recipe for homemade tartar sauce to serve as a dipping sauce.
Tartar sauce is a must-have to serve with your homemade fish fry.
Because tartar sauce is naturally sour, it is a perfect candidate for adding probiotics and enzymes through fermentation.
Culture not only improves the nutritional value and digestibility of the entire food, but also adds flavor!
All that's required is to stir in a small amount of liquid whey along with the rest of the ingredients.
Pure whey, not in powder form, can be used as a simple and inexpensive culture medium.
Here are five ways to make fresh whey in your kitchen. Choose the method that best suits your menu and schedule.
As a bonus, this lightly fermented tartar sauce will keep in the fridge for up to a month, not just a few days!
If possible, it's best to start with homemade mayonnaise.
If you're in a hurry, you can use one of the few healthy store-bought mayonnaise brands. My favorite is linked in the ingredients section of the recipe below.
