"Found @ saveurdotcom & entered here for play during Culinary Quest #4 - Exploring the Welsh cuisine for CQ #4 has been a happy adventure, mainly due to the wealth & popularity of seafood which they manage to make a part of most fine-dining experiences, but also joins home-cooking type meals in Wales as well. My main goal has been to discover & use crab meat the way the Welsh do. In this recipe, they have replaced the more pedestrian tartar sauce w/a “Star Status” sauce for use w/crab legs or crab cakes. Neither are ordinary, but they become extraordinary using this lovely sauce. ENJOY!"

Combine ingredients in a bowl, stir until smooth & refrigerate until ready for use. (I would prob make this in a fairly wide-mouth jar w/a lid, shake it well & then use from the jar as needed)
