Italian Salsa Verde Is The Mouthwatering Sauce Your Steak Merits
BY MATTHEW SPINA
From A1 to red wine bordelaise, you have tons of sauces to choose from to pair with a good steak. Italian salsa verde, with its briny and savory flavors, is an underrated option.
This Italian sauce is different from the well-known Mexican salsa verde. It uses briny capers and anchovies balanced by acidic citrus or vinegar, plus parsley, garlic, and salt.
The ingredients are blended together to create a herbal, zesty sauce that helps cut through a steak’s richness, while remaining light enough to let the meat be the star.
You can drizzle or spoon the sauce over your steak, or consider using it as a marinade, since the acidic component and salty anchovies can help to tenderize your steak.
