LEMON SAUCE - SALSA DI LIMONE



Lemon Sauce - Salsa Di Limone image

Another great recipe from Caio Italia's cooking show, Mary Ann Esposito. One of my favorite Italian chefs! Mary Ann Says: There is nothing that perks up flavors like lemons, but why think just a squirt will do, when this easy to make velvety lemon sauce is more interesting and elegant. Use it on everything from sliced fresh tomatoes and fresh asparagus, to grilled chicken, fish, or pork. It is perfect on roasted brussell sprouts too! Keep a jar in the refrigerator at all times.
