Salsa Verde and Steak

I think people have a tendency to forget that herb sauces make a great accompaniment for steaks, assuming one likes piquant flavors. Last weekend, I made a pseudo-salsa verde to liven up a fairly poor supermarket porterhouse, combining capers, parsley, lemon, garlic and olive oil into a thick paste.

Along with taboule, incidentally, salsa verde is a great way to use up parsley, if you are the sort of person who buys parsley in the full bloom of hope, and then glumly watches it wilt.
