This marinade imparts deep flavor to meat, especially when marinated overnight. Consider the following herbs a suggestion—make this recipe your own by combining your favorites, fresh or dried. Note: This Condimento Barili Exclusivi marinade is excellent for beef, lamb, and game; you can adapt it to chicken, pork, and fish by using Condimento Bianco Senape from my collection instead of Barili Exclusivi.
Ingredients
- 2 sprigs fresh thyme or 1/4 teaspoon dried
- 1 sprig fresh rosemary or 1/4 teaspoon dried
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon or 1 teaspoon dried
- 1 sprig fresh basil
- 3 fresh sage leaves or 1/2 teaspoon dried
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1-1/2 teaspoons coarse salt
- 1/4 cup Condimento Barili Exclusivi
- 1 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
Directions
If using fresh thyme and rosemary sprigs, strip the leaves and place them on a cutting board along with the tarragon, basil, sage, garlic, and salt. Coarsely chop them all together. Transfer to a mixing bowl and stir in the vinegar and black pepper, then slowly whisk in the olive oil until thoroughly blended.
Yields about 2/3 cup
