    Recipe



    1. Combine all the ingredients of the sauce and bring to a boil. Boil for 5 minutes.

    2. Add fresh vegetables and simmer until just tender. Do not overcook.

    3. Let them cool in the sauce.

    4. Serve chilled with some sauce spooned over; or drain, and serve with vinaigrette sauce. Or, the vegetables can be removed when they're done, the sauce cooked down until somewhat reduced, then cooled and poured over the vegetables.

    5. Top with chopped parsley, chives and fresh tarragon.
