Salmoriglio is a southern Italian condiment made of lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, salt, and herbs (such as oregano and parsley).[1] It is common in Sicily[2] and Calabria[1][3] as an accompaniment to seafoods or meats,[2] especially swordfish.[3]
Salmoriglio shares the same etymology as Spanish salmorejo (from Latin salimuria meaning "brine"). However, they are two entirely different dishes, salmoriglio being a sauce or condiment based on lemon, herbs and oil, whereas salmorejo is a Spanish soup consisting of tomatoes and bread.
