What is in Tangy Dill Pickle Sauce?

  • Garlic Dill Pickle Spears: These flavourful spears are the star of our sauce, providing a bold tanginess and a hint of garlic that adds depth to every bite. We recommend using our garlic dill spear to ensure the best flavor and texture in your sauce.
  • White or Rose Wine Vinegar: This vinegar brings a subtle acidity to the sauce, balancing out the richness of the pickles and enhancing their tangy flavor. Opt for a good-quality white or rose wine vinegar to complement the other ingredients without overpowering them.

  • White Vermouth: Adding a splash of white vermouth to the sauce provides a touch of complexity and depth, with its delicate herbal and floral notes. Choose a dry white vermouth to add a subtle hint of botanical flavors to your sauce without overwhelming the palate.

  • Fresh Cracked Black Pepper: The freshly cracked black pepper adds a welcome kick of heat and spice to the sauce, elevating its overall flavor profile. We recommend using whole peppercorns and cracking them just before adding them to the sauce to ensure maximum freshness and potency.

  • Fresh Dill for Garnish: Fresh dill not only adds a pop of vibrant green color to the sauce but also brings a refreshing herbal aroma and a subtle hint of sweetness. Be sure to use freshly chopped dill for the best flavor and visual appeal in your finished dish.

  • Lemon Wedges: These zesty wedges of lemon provide a bright and tangy contrast to the richness of the sauce, enhancing the overall flavor of the dish. Serve them alongside your sauce to allow your guests to customize the level of citrusy brightness to their liking.
