Chef Kleinfeld's Homemade Tartar & Beer Batter Fish

0:00Chef Kleinfeld just dropped his go-to recipes for homemade tartar sauce and beer batter, perfect for crispy fish at home. He keeps it simple with fresh ingredients that pack big flavor, no fancy gear needed. Whether you're frying up cod or haddock, these turn basic fish and chips into restaurant quality. His tartar sauce starts with one cup of mayonnaise as the base. Mix in 1 quarter cup, minced sweet white onion, 3 tablespoons minced cornichons or pickles, 2 tablespoons capers, 2 tablespoons chopped. Parsley, juice from one lemon and dashes of Worcestershire and Tabasco. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then chill it for that creamy kick. The beer batter is next level easy. Whisk one cup all-purpose flour, half a cup cornstarch, one and a half teaspoons baking powder, one bottle of logger or one and a half cup soda water. A pinch of salt and two ice cubes. It should look like pancake batter and Kleinfeld adds optional parsley or turmeric for color and vibe.
