Almond And Parsley Salsa Verde Recipes

SALSA VERDE

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, stir together the garlic, jalapeno, shallot, lemon zest and juice, olive oil, parsley, celery leaves and capers and taste for seasoning. Season with salt as needed.

TOASTED ALMOND AND PARSLEY SALSA

Steps:

• Combine shallots and vinegar in a small bowl. Add a pinch of salt and let stand 30 minutes or as long as time permits. Add the capers, parsley and almonds. Toss until well combined. Add olive oil. Taste and adjust seasonings. Serve immediately.

GRILLED FISH WITH SALSA VERDE

Steps:

• To make the salsa verde, combine the garlic, anchovy fillet, salt and capers in a mini food processor and pulse to a paste. (Alternatively, use an immersion blender and combine the ingredients in a jar and blend to a paste.) Add the olive oil and parsley and blend to a purée. Season to taste with salt and pepper. If using within a few hours, allow to sit at room temperature. Otherwise, refrigerate. Allow to come to room temperature before using.
• Prepare a hot grill. When the grill is ready, season the fish with salt and pepper on both sides and brush generously on both sides with olive oil. Grill for about 3 minutes on each side, just until you can pull the flesh apart with a fork. Remove from the heat and serve with the salsa verde.

FRESH HERB SALSA VERDE

Steps:

• In a food processor, combine herbs, garlic, and vinegar; if desired, add capers and anchovy fillets. Pulse until coarsely chopped, 20 seconds. Transfer to a small bowl and stir in olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.

SALSA VERDE (CAPER AND PARSLEY SAUCE)

Steps:

• If using capers packed in salt, in a small bowl soak in water to cover by 2 inches for 15 minutes and drain. In a food processor combine all ingredients except vinegar and finely chop. Salsa verde may be prepared up to this point 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Bring salsa verde to room temperature before proceeding. Just before serving, stir in vinegar.
