What does one get when one combines cocktail sauce and tartar sauce in equal parts?



Best Answer

Barring the thickening with finely sieved hard-boiled egg/egg-yolk, this combination is heading in the direction of Thousand Island dressing. Given that recipe is so variable, you could just about get away with calling it that.

Is tartar sauce the same as cocktail sauce?

Cocktail sauce is little more than ketchup and horseradish. When paired up with seafood, it often tastes too sweet and beats up on the subtle flavors of fish or shellfish. Tartar sauce, a mixture of mayo and pickle relish, has the opposite problem.

What is tartar sauce named after?

The name is derived from the French Sauce Tartare. It is named after the Tatar tribe which came from Eurasian Steppe to occupy the parts of Ukraine and Russia. The Tartar introduced finely minced meat eaten raw which became known as hamburg steak. So this is Steak Tartare that we have heard of and maybe even tried.
