Salsa Verde
This herby, zippy, sauce can be put on everything to give it an extra pop. I love having a bottle in the fridge for a fast and easy way to take my roasted vegetables to a new level. The mix of mint, cilantro, citrus, and sesame seeds is a surprising but really approachable flavour I think you will love. I call it a salsa verde or a green sauce, as I don’t know what else to call it. Sesame Cilantro Vinaigrette would be a great name as well!
