A flavorful recipe for Gremolata, a zesty Italian herb sauce that gives a flavorful boost to fish, chicken, pasta, soups and stews. Many of you are probably already familiar with Gremolata-  but if not, this could be the difference between a dish that is bland and unexciting to something alive and truly bursting with flavor! And the best thing is it only takes FIVE  minutes to make, and I’m pretty sure you already have the simple ingredients on hand. Traditionally it is a dry sprinkling of chopped parsley, lemon zest, and garlic. But this version of Gremolata is different. Swirl it into a simple pot of beans, warm pasta, risotto or polenta. Serve with hearty meaty dishes like braised shanks, grilled beef or lamb.

Gremolata is like a breath of fresh air, enlivening and brightening up even the most somber of dishes. Plus it adds a bit of color which always makes dishes more appealing. FOOD PROCESSOR: If making big batches of Gremolata, I’ll opt for the food processor. In catering, we would often serve Gremolata with grilled beef or slow-braised meats to give them a bit of brightness. At home, I use it on practically everything. This recipe makes a 1 cup jar that keeps for 7-10 days in the fridge. Spoon Gremolata over Ribolita or Tuscan Eggs or this Black Cod.
