Directions
Make way for the King of Sicilian cold sauces: salmoriglio or sammurigghiu! Yes, salmoriglio is one of the most well-known and beloved sauces. It is prepared in less than a minute and is used to season and give flavor to roasted fish and meat dishes.
Grilled fish or meat? Well, there goes the salmoriglio, without a doubt! Salmoriglio, like agghiata, is a sauce that goes great with grilled fish, especially fish seasoned with added breadcrumbs and pecorino cheese.
There are two versions of this sauce: one calls for finely chopped parsley (ideal for seasoning freshly grilled fish) while the other does not call for parsley (perfect for seasoning roasted meat).
