About Lemon sauce

Lemon sauce is a tangy and versatile condiment often used in various cuisines, including Mediterranean and European dishes. Its core ingredients typically include lemon juice, sugar or honey, water, and a thickening agent such as cornstarch or flour. Some versions may incorporate butter, cream, garlic, or fresh herbs for added flavor complexity. Lemon sauce can be served as a drizzle for grilled fish, chicken, vegetables, or desserts like cakes and puddings. Nutritionally, its vibrant lemon base provides vitamin C, antioxidants, and a refreshing burst of flavor. However, variations high in sugar, butter, or cream may increase calorie and fat content, making moderation advisable for those watching their intake. Overall, lemon sauce is a zesty and delicious addition to meals, balancing rich and light components, and it can be customized to suit both dietary preferences and culinary traditions.
