Notes: This lovely sauce is another good use for the tougher watercress stems and less-than-perfect leaves. If making it up to 1 week ahead, cover and chill (it will darken and thicken slightly). Serve as a salad dressing or as a dip for cold, cooked shrimp, or drizzle over poached chicken breasts. Ingredients:
4 ounces watercress (1 qt.) |
1 cup mayonnaise |
2 tablespoons lemon juice |
2 teaspoons anchovy paste |
1 clove garlic, peeled |
salt and pepper |
Directions:
1. Rinse watercress and drain well; pat dry with towels, then coarsely chop.
2. In a blender or food processor, whirl watercress, 1/2 cup mayonnaise, lemon juice, anchovy paste, and garlic until smooth.
3. Pour into a bowl and whisk in remaining mayonnaise until smooth. Add salt and pepper to taste.
