Recipe View 4 hrs Chill and Develop Flavors: Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate the tartar sauce for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and intensify. (4+ hours)

For a smoother sauce, use a higher speed in the food processor, but be careful not to make it a puree.
Adjust the amount of jalapeños according to your spice preference.
For a tangier flavor, add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice before chilling.
If you don't have buttery round crackers, you can substitute with more saltines, but the flavor will be slightly different.
Serving Suggestion: Pairs perfectly with fried fish, grilled shrimp, crab cakes, or as a dip for fresh vegetables.
