Salsa Verde Without Eggs

Salsa verde without eggs is a delightful Italian sauce that brings a punch of flavor to any meal. In Piemonte, and beyond, no bollito misto is complete without this vibrant condiment! We present a lighter variation that’s equally rich in taste: egg-free salsa verde.

So easy and quick to make, egg-free salsa verde will captivate you with its intense aroma and color! This reimagining of a classic can’t be missing from your recipe collection.
