Notes

  • If you find the sauce is too thick, add a little more water or white wine/vinegar to thin it out. 
  • The anchovy adds an umami flavor to the sauce, but if you are vegetarian or vegan, feel free to leave it out.
  • You can also add a splash of Worcestershire sauce or soy sauce for additional flavor.
