Salsa verde

Green sauce

Salsa Verde is a green sauce made with Italian parsley to be served with boiled meats. It is easy to make and really makes for a good sauce.

Ingredients:

3-1/2 oz. fresh Italian parsley leaves
4 anchovies
2 cloves garlic
1 slice bread without the crust
4 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
red wine vinegar to soak the bread
salt to taste


Instructions:

1. In a food processor chop the garlic. Then add the parsley, oil, anchovies and a pinch of salt.
2. Blend it, for a few seconds at a time to avoid cooking it.
3. Remove the crust from one slice of bread, place it in a bowl and add enough vinegar to get it soggy.
4. Squeeze the bread well to remove excess vinegar and add the bread to the parsley. Blend some more a few seconds at a time until it is fairly smooth.
5. Check the saltiness and add a bit if necessary. Add more oil if it's too dry.
6. Refrigerate in a bowl until you are ready to serve it.

Notes:

When you make boiled meat serve this sauce together with Pearà.
