RECIPE TIPS
1. It is best to consume the sauce immediately, but if you prefer, you can store it for up to 5 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator (we recommend not storing the sauce longer than that to prevent the growth of microorganisms).
2. We like to use 2 small cloves of garlic in this recipe, but if you prefer a lighter, less intense sauce, you can reduce it to just 1 clove.
Ingredient variations for this sauce:
1. You can use other types of aromatic herbs to season this sauce, such as coriander, basil or mint.
2. Instead of lemon juice, you can season the sauce with lime juice, it really depends on your personal taste.
3. We prefer to season the sauce with grated garlic, but you can also use garlic powder (1/2 teaspoon). The flavor changes a little, it's not as pleasant or natural, but it makes the recipe even quicker than it already is.
