This rich sauce is perfect served alongside any meat or vegetable. It’s also delicious used as a sauce with low carb noodles like shiratiki noodles or Egglife wraps. If I’m being honest, I’d probably lick it off of shoe leather! If you like roasted garlic, then you might want to roast several heads at once. You can freeze the pulp for future use.
