*** Starring: Sorrel ***

Sorrel is coming to market. After doing a little research on this herb, we found that its classic use is a sauce for fish. We tried the following recipe and were quite impressed! Made us feel like gourmet cooks.

In a saucepan, combine 1/2 c chopped fresh sorrel leaves, 2 T dry white wine & 3 T minced green onion. On medium heat, cook the leaves until they wilt, about 2 minutes. Add 1 c whipping cream and 1-1/2 t fresh lime juice. Simmer the mixture and reduce to sauce consistency, about 12 minutes. Puree the sauce. (We blended it in a Betty Crocker Little Chopper.) Return the sauce to the pan and reheat it. Season to taste with salt & pepper. We cooked tilapia fillets in a pan with a little bit of olive oil. Top the fish with the sauce and enjoy!
