Pound the mint
8 minPound the fresh mint leaves with the salt in a mortar, or crush them with the flat of a knife, until you get a dark green paste.
The traditional English sauce served alongside grilled lamb, mint vinegar sauce is made by pounding fresh mint with salt and blending it with apple vinegar, then letting it rest. Its plain, no-added-sugar formula cuts through the richness of grilled meat.
Pound the fresh mint leaves with the salt in a mortar, or crush them with the flat of a knife, until you get a dark green paste.
Stir the hot water into the pounded mint, then slowly whisk in the apple vinegar.
Let the mixture rest at room temperature for at least 45 minutes so the flavors meld, then stir once before serving.
Don't skip pounding the mint with salt; this step breaks down the leaves' cell walls so the flavor releases into the vinegar much faster. This recipe does not contain a known allergen group.
If the sauce tastes too sharp, balance it with a few tablespoons of hot water; diluting it this way, rather than cutting back on the vinegar, keeps the mint flavor dominant.
