    Cook’s Note

    This is very much an organic recipe, meaning the measurements are estimates. Add as much olive oil and lemon juice as you like to reach your preferred consistency.

    If you're cooking pasta, you can add in a little pasta water to make it more saucy. This also makes a good dip for raw vegetables.
