The Tale of Tartar Sauce
Story updated
Tartar sauce likely evolved from French sauce tartare, a mayonnaise-based condiment with capers and herbs whose name evokes Tartar cuisine, though the link is more evocative than literal. It became a fixture alongside fried fish in Britain and the US by the early 20th century, especially with fish and chips.
