This sauce has such a fresh taste! I used it on salmon on the bbq adding the sauce toward the end of cooking.

I won't rate this, since maybe I did something wrong, given all of the good reviews it's gotten. Maybe I used too much or not enough cilantro. Perhaps the recipe should give a more specific amount, because I followed the recipe exactly as written with no changes whatsoever. Honestly, I don't know why this didn't work, but it was the worst thing I have ever made with cilantro. I was sad that I wasted some of my home grown cilantro on this recipe.

I made & refrigerated this for several hours before using it as a dip for boiled shrimp. Al I have to say is WOW!!

Love this! I served it on blackened salmon tacos topped with a roasted corn salsa! I, personally, prefer a thicker crema so I added avocado. I also felt like it was missing a certain depth of flavor so I added a clove of garlic. It went from yummy to delish.

Nice recipe! A little too thin for me so I added a small Hass Avocado and it was perfect!!
