Cream of Tartar (cremo tartaro)

[TrickyFox]

Anyone know where we can buy this? Never seen it in Mercadona or Spar. Even tried in GC with no luck.

Did you try the British Stores in Caleta ?

I believe if you used a little bit more baking powder can be substituted for cream of tartar. Don't know what application you need it for but might be worth a try as I imagine it will be easier to find.

Management makes her own, when she returns in an hour or so I will ask her for the recipe/method etc.

Here we are

1/2 cup mayonnaise,
1 small dill pickle, chopped very small (3 tablespoons)
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, plus more to taste
1 tablespoon capers, chopped, optional
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill or 1 teaspoon dried dill
1/2 to 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard, optional.
Combine the mayonnaise, pickles, lemon juice, capers, dill, Worcestershire sauce, and mustard in a small bowl and stir until well blended and creamy.
Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Taste then adjust with additional lemon juice, salt, and pepper. For the best flavor, cover, and store in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
Keep, tightly covered, in the refrigerator for 2/3 weeks.

Thank you for the replies.
Apparently it is bitartrato de potasio (not cremo tartaro). We need it for the potassium content.

I think you'll find this is Tartare Sauce John! Not Cream of Tartar which is a powder product similar to Baking Powder

Please thank “Management” for the recipe in any case.
Sounds delicious.
