FAQ

Can this go in a shake jar?

Yes. Its liquids pour to printed fill-lines, so it can be one of the sauces on a PantryFlex jar.

What do the quantities mean?

Amounts follow the published recipe in household units (with metric in parentheses). On a jar, every sauce scales to the same fill height.

Where did this recipe come from?

Adapted from Nina Compton / WWL (heirloom tomatoes with buttermilk Caesar) (published as “Tomato Marinade”). Full citation lives in Provenance.
