Frequently asked questions

What kind of rémoulade is this?
A simple, early rémoulade made from hard-boiled egg yolk mashed with mustard and stirred with chopped onion, parsley and capers – without the mayonnaise that modern rémoulade often has.
Can I use cucumber instead of capers?
Yes, the original gives the choice: 'capers or a little cucumber'. A little chopped pickled cucumber gives the same tart note.
