For an even richer flavor, consider using a high-quality olive oil-based mayonnaise.
Adjust the amount of relish to your liking. If you prefer a less sweet salad, reduce the amount of sweet pickle relish.
Fresh dill can be used in place of dried dill weed for a brighter flavor. Use approximately 1 tablespoon of fresh dill, finely chopped.
For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a dash of your favorite hot sauce.
Serve chilled for the best flavor and texture.
