Notes
- Italian salsa verde is best enjoyed on the same day it’s made, but leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
- Taste your Salsa Verde as you go and adjust the seasoning to get the perfect balance of salty, tangy, and herby flavors.
- If you prefer a chunkier sauce, chop the ingredients by hand. For a smoother sauce, a food processor or blender works well.
