Sauce Recipe ✓ Chef John's Green Sauce

This is about as primitive as it gets. Take some garlic, capers, anchovy, and parsley, and smash it up in a molcajete. Add a little oil and vinegar, possibly a pinch of salt and pepper, and you have maybe the world's greatest grilled meat condiment. I guessed at these amounts as this is not a recipe that requires precise measurements; do everything to taste.

Ingredients

• 2 large cloves garlic
• 1 pinch salt
• ¼ cup packed flat-leaf parsley leaves
• 2 teaspoons capers
• 1 teaspoon anchovy paste
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar

Cooking Directions

1. Crush garlic and salt in a molcajete or with a mortar and pestle until garlic has a paste-like texture. Add parsley, capers, and anchovy paste; grind into garlic until mixture is coarsely ground.
2. Stir oil and vinegar into parsley mixture.
