Step by step
Instructions
If you want tartar sauce that's truly “better than store-bought,” don't make it from mayonnaise alone. The mayo + thick yogurt combo is ideal: it stays creamy without being heavy and tastes fresh. Always chop the pickles very finely or squeeze them lightly – it's the difference between a thick tartar and a watery sauce.

Variants and alternatives
Extra garlicky: add 1 small garlic clove (careful not to overpower the flavor). No yogurt: use only mayonnaise – it'll be richer and more "bistro-style." Fit version: use more yogurt and less mayo (e.g. 120 g mayo + 180 g yogurt). Herby: stir in chives or dill – great especially with fish.
