Ingredients

  • 1 cup Mayonnaise
  • 3 tablespoons finely chopped Dill Pickles
  • 1 tablespoon Sweet Pickle Relish well drained
  • 1 tablespoon finely minced White Onion
  • 2 teaspoons Capers drained and finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed Lemon Juice
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon Mustard
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped Fresh Parsley
  • 1/4 teaspoon Granulated Sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground Black Pepper

Instructions

  • Add mayonnaise, dill pickles, sweet pickle relish, onion, capers, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, parsley, sugar, salt and black pepper to a medium bowl.
  • Stir until thoroughly combined.
  • Taste and adjust salt or lemon juice, if needed.
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
  • Stir well before serving cold with Fish & Chips or other seafood.
Notes
  • For the closest texture, chop the pickles, capers and onion very finely rather than leaving large pieces.
  • In a hurry, substitute 4 tablespoons good-quality dill pickle relish for the chopped pickles and sweet relish.
