I wrote a while ago and I had worked in the Store room at Morrisons for
almost 2 years. It was our responsibility to make the Tartar Sauce.
Our recipe made a 20 gallon bucket full and we had to make this at
least twice a week.
Recipe (bulk)
10 heads of chopped green cabbage
12 seeded green bell peppers
6 large peeled and cored onions
4 #10 cans of dill pickle relish (slightly drained)
8 gallons of heavy duty mayonnaise
Home Version
1/2 medium head of chopped green cabbage
1 medium seeded green bell pepper
1 medium cored and peeled white onion
1 small jar of dill pickle relish (slightly drained)
1 quart of Helmans or heavy duty ( extra thick) mayonnaise
First we would process the cabbage, bell pepper and onion in a buffalo
chopper. (like a large food processor) until it was finely chopped.
Then we would fold in the mayonnaise and finely the dill pickle relish.
We would then store this in the walk in refrigerator and use it the next
day. It really needs to sit over night.
The home version can be made using a food processor and pulsing the
ingredients until they are finely chopped and then follow the standard
recipe.
Heavy duty mayonnaise is very important due to the fact the ingredients
produce a lot of moisture and can cause regular mayonnaise to break down
and turn
watery.

Hello Claire,
Salts of hartshorn is also called simply "hartshorn", which is an old name
for baking ammonia or baker's ammonia which is ammonium bicarbonate.
Salts of potash is also called "pearlash" and is potassium carbonate.
Potassium carbonate was replaced by potassium bicarbonate or bicarbonate
of potash which is called "salertus".
These are old-fashioned chemical leaveners for baking. They mostly went out
of use during the 19th century, when they were replaced by baking soda and
baking powder.
You can still buy hartshorn lots of places. See:
Fancy Flours
King Arthur
House on the Hill
Chem Associates
Pearlash and salertus have almost completely been replaced by baking soda, but this place still sells them:
Deborah's Pantry
You might also find bicarbonate of potash at your pharmacy.
You can substitute baking soda for them, in the ratio of 1/4 teaspoon per cup
of flour. The only reason hartshorn and pearlash are still used occasionally
are for authenticity and for the slight flavor or texture contribution that
they make.

Greetings!
First - many thanks for your service: it's wonderful.
The famous hippie restaurant on Haight Street in San Francisco
- Mommy Fortuna's - had wonderful food. Evidently, all of the recipes
have disappeared.
The best dish I ever had there was the "Mommy Fortuna Burger" which
was a patty topped by spinach, a white cheese (Muenster?), and a
sweetened vinaigrette. That's as much as I can remember.
Have you ever come across this or any of the other Mommy Fortuna recipes?
Although I've enjoyed eating at many of the Bay Area restaurants
(Greens, Chez Panisse, Ciao, etc.) two of the best comfort food spots
were always Mommy Fortuna's and Hamburger Mary's.
Again, many, many thanks.

Addendum: "Mommy Fortuna's" was not in the Haight during the hippie heydey of the Sixties.
It opened in 1973 at 1648(?) Haight Street, on the corner of Haight and Belvedere, and was
popular in the seventies and eighties. Mommy Fortuna's appears to have closed in the late
eighties. It was known for breakfast omelets and for char-broiled hamburgers:
According to a 1974 item in the
"San Francisco Bay Guardian":
"Everything is homemade, bread, pastries, hamburgers with mushrooms, bacon and a special wine
and beer sauce. There’s fresh-squeezed orange juice and real ice tea with no preservatives."
