Crab Cooker Tartar Sauce (copycat recipe)

TARTAR SAUCE LIKE CRAB COOKER

For the better part of Dick's life, he has been trying to duplicate the tartar sauce served at the Crab Cooker in Newport Beach. It is tasty and "light". Most of this recipe is from Dick's Tartar Sauce recipe, except for the last ingredient which makes it "light" right! Denise came to the realization what the magic ingredient was when she tried to freeze Crab Cooker Tartar Sauce.
