Literally ‘Sauce Green’ this delicious condiment should not be underestimated when it comes to adding a punch of flavour to all sorts of things.
This sauce is so delicious and can really be used on anything you feel needs a bit of a boost. I often use it as a drizzle on soups for example. It is brilliant on anything Mexican. Or Italian....you can change up the herbs depending on what your intention in using it is. I think it is also amazing if you add a bit of heat with a green chili. But that is just me!
Interestingly the origin of this sauce is unsure, but Italian and/or Spanish origins aside, it is delicious which ever way you make it. I have another version on it’s way with Tomatillo’s which are not that easy to source in Australia, tinned or fresh. So watch this space...this sauce has limitless options, be free...and shake it up!
