This is absolutely the best sauce ever! It is particularly excellent with Salmon but, would taste great on anything! Super easy and can be made ahead and stored ion the fridge for a few days. I even like it drizzled over vegetables! This is outstanding and I must thank Chef Richard McPeake for teaching me this recipe.
