I don’t often miss things being gluten-free but about once a year I miss a fish sandwich. Yep-I admit it. I used to love filet of fish sandwiches from McDonalds. The McD’s fish burgers were my favourite things to eat there. First, homemade is always better I find. Second, the list of ingredients in a jarred sauce is too much for me so I thought I would make a gluten-free version. What I found out is, it isn’t hard to make tartar sauce AND it is so much better then the jarred stuff in the grocery store.
This gluten-free tartar sauce is packed with flavour and is so much tastier than any jarred sauce. it is ready in 5 minutes and is delicious as a dip too. Are you ready to make some tartar sauce?
