Remoulade

Remoulade is a Danish type of tartar sauce. Usually the Danes eat it as a topping on their open-faced sandwiches (“smørrebrød”) or as a dip for their fried food. It is addictingly good when homemade. My friend Gro made the remoulade for last year’s Danish Christmas party and I immediately requested her recipe. INGREDIENTS:

• 1 tablespoon cornichons
• 1 teaspoon capers
• 1 cup mayonnaise
• 3 tablespoons sour cream
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
• 2 tablespoons fresh tarragon
• 2 tablespoons minced carrot
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon curry powder
• Salt and pepper

DIRECTIONS:

1. Chop the cornichons and capers together, then place in a mixing bowl with the remaining ingredients.
2. Stir well and season with salt and pepper.
