{Salsa Verde Alla Piemontese} Italian Herb Sauce Recipe

If you know Mexican salsa verde, well, this is not that. Italian salsa verde is a sweet-sour herby sauce that hails from the region of Piedmont and is traditionally served along heavy roasts and stews. That tradition exists for a reason (because it’s delicious and it adds a welcome zing of flavor to anything it tops), but we like to use it all over the place from a sauce alongside fried zucchini blossoms to atop a piece of grilled fish or slathered in our favorite steak sandwich. You will find that many of our recipes include this {Salsa Verde Alla Piemontese} Italian Herb Sauce recipe.
