How long do you poach the brain for this dish and do you use spices or salt when poaching it? I haven't tried eating one before.

About

This sauce comes probably from the same origin as the one that we call tartar sauce in French cuisine. However, it brings a different flavor and it goes particularly well with the taste of brains.
