To use, simply heat the sauce gently in a saucepan over medium heat until warmed through. Avoid boiling, as this can alter the texture and flavor. You can also add it directly to your cooking at the end of the process to infuse your meal with its distinct lemon garlic profile. For a richer flavor, consider reducing the sauce slightly by simmering it uncovered for a few minutes. It works well as a finishing sauce or as a base for more complex preparations.
