1/2 cup good mayonnaise
2 tablespoons small-diced cornichons
1 tablespoon Champagne vinegar
1 tablespoon capers
1 teaspoon dijon mustard
Pinch kosher salt
Pinch freshly ground black pepper

Nothing crazy or unidentifiable here. And here is how easy it is:

Place all the ingredients in a small bowl and mix well. Chill for at least one hour before serving.

That is all there is to it. Not only does it go great with fish but Kris loves it on french fries!!!

Cheers!
