Whats in Dinghys homemade tartar sauce?
Mayo, sweet relish, boiled egg, a little mustard and lemon juice. If I’m feeling fancy I’ll put sour cream in it too. Do people really eat more than one basket of fish? Oh gosh yes. We have hearty eaters here. Sometimes there’s four or five reorders. Fish dishes you love to make at home: I have a really good recipe for salmon. I bake it with a layer of spinach and a layer of cream cheese and mayonnaise, which sounds kind of strange but it’s wonderful. Any secrets for getting to the front of the fish fry line? What I tell my family: if you don’t want to wait, be there by 4:30 p.m. Or order it takeout, you’ll get it faster.
