Notes
- Helpful Tips:
- You can prepare this in advance and store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Before serving, allow it to acclimate to room temperature and give it a good stir.
- Other Serving Suggestions:
- Note: Nutrition is calculated with bread included.
- Only use the fresh parsley leaves. You can use the stems to flavor homemade bone broth or homemade chicken broth.
- Stir the sour cream until any liquids are well distributed before adding the recommended tablespoons to the recipe. Taste test and add one extra tablespoon if you prefer a more mild umami flavor.
- The anchovy paste will initially look quite liquidy but will firm up as it sits on the counter. So, allow it to rest for a few minutes to get a creamy and flavorful spread that tastes perfect on toasted bread or oven-roasted crostini bread.
- You can prepare this in advance and store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Before serving, allow it to acclimate to room temperature and give it a good stir.
- Serve with cherry tomatoes and olives on the side, or make it part of a Mediterranean Platter.
- Use it as a dip for raw vegetables or snow peas.
- Flavor hard-boiled eggs or these eggs and anchovies frittata muffins for a delicious, savory flavor.
- Use it to flavor sandwiches or steak similar to my Cilantro Parsley Chimichurri.
- Infuse some with hot pasta or top some on my thick-crust pizza bread for a savory bite.
