- Note 1 - Lime zest: you can use a microplane zester to zest the lime. We zest the whole lime and add that to the sauce. But we only use ½ of the lime juice. Taste as you go, but the whole lime would be too tart in flavor.
- Note 2: Salt and pepper: we only need to smallest amount of salt and pepper. This seasons the recipe, but allows the other ingredients to shine.
