This is an Old recipe handed down from my Wife's Great Grandmother dateing back to the 1800's. I have not found it on any site any where . I hope you enjoy this as much as we do. It makes delicious tarter sauce. For tarter sauce strain and squeeze 2-3 tablespoons full and add to 1 cup of mayonnaise chill and serve. Or mix to your liking.
