10 Stars! Love this so much! I make versions of this type of quick sauce often, this one is definitely near the top of my favourite list. The amount of "nooch" is just right, because you're right Kozmic, it's not a flavour everyone enjoys, you could easily add more if that's what you're going for. I had to leave out the pimentos, but otherwise made as written - only I halved the recipe (whipped it up in my Magic Bullet). Mustard was a nice addition here. I had the sauce with some noodles and gardein nuggets for dinner, it was so good I practically polished the entire half batch off myself. All depending on what you're doing with this, I think yielding 2 cups would only serve 4. Thanks for posting. Veg*n Swap July 2010.
