For best results, use a high-speed blender to achieve the smoothest possible sauce. Adjust the amount of lemon juice, salt, and pepper to your personal preference. This sauce is best served immediately. If reheating, do so gently on the stovetop over low heat, adding a splash of almond milk or water to loosen it up. Experiment with adding other spices and herbs, such as nutmeg, red pepper flakes, or fresh parsley.
