Frankfurt Style Green Sauce
Green Sauce is a traditional dish known to the region of Frankfurt in Germany. It is made around Easter time when all the lovely Easter eggs are dyed and decorated around the house. Traditionally after the Easter egg hunt, all the eggs are used to make this wonderful savoury sauce that is served with smoked trout and boiled potatoes. It is a very special treat for the whole family and freezes so well in batches.
