About Sorrel sauce

Sorrel sauce, a vibrant and tangy condiment, originates from Eastern European and Caribbean cuisines where sorrel leaves are widely used. The sauce typically features fresh sorrel, butter or cream, garlic, and sometimes shallots or lemon for added brightness. Its key ingredient, sorrel, is rich in vitamins A, C, and antioxidants, which may support immune health and vision. The sauce's sharp, lemony flavor makes it a perfect pairing for fish, chicken, or pasta. While sorrel itself is low in calories and packed with nutrients, the inclusion of butter or cream can add saturated fats, so moderation is ideal for heart-conscious diets. Variations exist with added spices or yogurt for a lighter option. Sorrel sauce is celebrated for its refreshing and wholesome qualities when balanced with mindful preparation.
