Recipe looks amazing. I'm just confused about the sodium content given the capers. Is this accurate? Dietitian Response: We understand what you mean, capers are salty. However, because we are only using 1 teaspoon in the whole recipe and there are 6 servings, that splits it up to make a serving much lower in sodium. Yes this sodium content is accurate. If you go over the 2 tablespoon serving size the sodium will add up. The other ingredients provide flavor to the dressing as well. We hope this helps.

Can this sauce be used a marinade for chicken? Dietitian Response: That is a great idea. We have not tested it that way, but with the butter and wine that would be nice to try and should have a good outcome.

My DH proclaimed this sauce to be as good and flavorful as soy sauce. High praise, coming from him. And a joy for me to be able to serve him something he so thoroughly enjoys. Thanks!
