3/4 cup grapeseed or olive oil (or a combination)
1/4 cup minced no-sugar-added dill pickle (such as Whole Foods kosher dills)
3 tablespoons minced green onion
1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley
1/2 teaspoon dried tarragon
1/4 teaspoon hot pepper sauce

     Directions

    1. In a blender or food processor, blend the egg, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 teaspoon mustard, and salt until smooth.

    2. With the motor running, drizzle in the oil in a very slow stream until the mayonnaise is thick.

    3. Transfer the mayonnaise to a bowl and stir in the 2 teaspoons of lemon juice, remaining 1 teaspoon mustard, and all remaining ingredients.

    4. This tartar sauce will keep in the fridge for up to 1 week.

    Cooked variation:

    1. First whisk the egg and 1 tablespoon lemon juice in a small saucepan over low heat until frothy and thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 5 minutes.

    2. Immediately transfer the mixture to a bowl, cover, and refrigerate.

    3. When the egg mixture has cooled to room temperature, blend it in the blender with the mustard and salt and add the oil slowly (as above).
