Ingredients
Instructions
-
Wash and thoroughly dry the fresh cilantro to remove any excess moisture. Peel the garlic cloves and set them aside.
-
In a food processor or blender, combine the cilantro, garlic cloves, kosher salt, honey, water, and red pepper flakes if desired. Blend until a smooth and uniform paste forms.
-
If fermenting, transfer the blended mixture into a clean glass jar. Add whey or previously fermented brine. Close the jar with a lid slightly ajar to allow gases to escape. Store in a dark, room-temperature spot for 24-48 hours, burping the jar daily to release excess gas.
-
Taste the sauce and adjust salt and honey as preferred. Add more water if the consistency is too thick.
-
Transfer the sauce to a clean, airtight jar and store in the refrigerator. Use immediately or let mature for a few days for deeper flavor.
