360-Infused Garlic and Herb Sauce

Ingredients:

1/2 Cup of Herbs( fresh parsley, cilantro, dill, chives, basil, tarragon)

3 small garlic cloves, minced

1 Zest of lemon plus 1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice

1/2 teaspoon of salt

1/2 teaspoon of pepper

1/4 ` 1/2 teaspoon of red pepper flakes

6 tablespoons of 360 Infused Olive Oil

Instructions

• MAKE HERBS SAUCE: Finely chop herbs and green onions. Stir together with other dressing ingredients except oil. Slowly whisk in infused oil. Alternatively (I do this): put all herb dressing ingredients in a processor and pulse to blend well. Or use an immersion blender. Taste and adjust seasonings to your liking. Serve at room temperature.

Ingredients: fresh herbs (use a mix of what you like, what you have, and what goes well with your dish), olive oil, lemon, garlic, red pepper flakes, salt.

Put all ingredients in a food processor bowl and process for a minute until well blended. You can also use an immersion blender or chop herbs and garlic finely with a knife. Taste and adjust seasonings.

Recipe Notes

1. Herbs: Use whatever spices you like, have on hand and go with your recipe:
   • Tender herbs go well with shrimp and fish: fresh parsley, cilantro, dill, chives, basil, tarragon.
   • More robust, woody herbs go well with meat, potatoes, tofu, and chicken: thyme, rosemary, sage, oregano—also chives, parsley, and cilantro.
2. Substitutes:
   • use lime juice instead of lemon juice or zest
   • try to use at least 1-2 fresh herbs for the recipe. If there is a particular herby flavor you’re looking for and don’t have that fresh herb, you can use a dried herb. The rule of thumb is 1 teaspoon dried for 3 teaspoons fresh.
   • substitute olive oil with vegetable oil
3. Make Ahead: The herb sauce will be kept in the fridge in a sealed container for about a week. The vibrant green color will fade a bit though. The color stays greener using lemon zest only without adding lemon juice.
