Welcome to the summary page for FabulousFusionFood's Cook's Guide entry for Tartare along with all the Tartare containing recipes presented on this site, with 7 recipes in total.

This is a continuation of an entire series of pages that will, I hope, allow my visitors to better navigate this site. As well as displaying recipes by name, country and region of origin I am now planning a whole series of pages where recipes can be located by meal type and main ingredient. This page gives a listing of all the Tartare recipes added to this site.

These recipes, all contain Tartare as a major wild food ingredient.

Tartare is a term either for raw beef that's minced and served with egg yolk and seasoning or a sauce made from mayonnaise, gherkins and capers which is traditionally used as an accompaniment for fish. The name itself comes from Medieval legends about the Mongols (Tartars) who were said to ride with raw meat beneath their saddles, meat which was supposed to be tenderised as they rode. Hence, a dish of raw meat was a dish in the 'style of the Tartar' which eventually became 'Tartare'.
