Ingredients
- ½ cup neutral-flavored oil avocado, sunflower, safflower, grape seed, canola, vegetable and peanut oils will all work
- ¼ cup hot tap water
- finely grated zest from 1 large lemon
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice more to taste
- 2 medium garlic cloves
- 1 cup flat-leaf parsley leaves loosely packed - 20-22g
- ½ cup oregano leaves loosely packed - 10-12g
- ½ cup fresh basil leaves loosely packed - 10-12g
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- ½ teaspoon honey
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt more to taste
- ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
- Combine everything except the olive oil in a blender or food processor container. Blend for 2 minutes until nice and smooth. You may need to stop once or twice and use a spatula to scrape down the sides of the container.
- With the machine off, use a spatula to scrape down the sides and bottom of the blender or food processor container.
- Continue to process again and slowly add the olive oil over 45-60 seconds until nice and smooth.
- Taste and add more lemon juice or salt, if needed.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Shake well before using.
- This sauce can also be frozen. Thaw in the refrigerator.
Notes
- See Café Tips above in the post for more detailed instructions and tips to ensure success.
- If you prefer to use Metric measurements there is a button in each of our recipes, right above the word “Instructions”. Just click that button to toggle to grams, milliliters, etc. If you ever come across one of our recipes that doesn’t have the Metric conversion (some of the older recipes may not), feel free to leave a comment and I will add it.
- Makes just under 2 cups of sauce.
