Cilantro Cream Recipe - Cooking Index
Fresh cilantro lends a zesty tang to this creamy sauce. If cilantro is difficult to find, use any of your favorite herbs such as dill, tarragon, basil or parsley -- or stir in a bit of pesto -- its great! Make a day or two in advance, allowing the flavors to blend and mellow.
