INGREDIENTS
- ½ bunch fresh cilantro (about 1 oz)

- 1 jalapeno, without ribs and seeds
- ¼ cup lime juice
- 6 tablespoons water
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons shelled pistachios (optional)

DIRECTIONS
- Add all of the ingredients to a blender and blend until creamy.
- Serve promptly or store in an air-tight container for later.
CHEF'S NOTES
I like adding the pistachios for a little bit of nutty flavor to balance out the flavor, but they can be left out if you prefer.
For a sauce with a little more texture, use a food processor instead of a blender.
When stored the liquid may separate, but give it a stir and you’ll be all set.
