Instructions:

Old Sour

This is an old-time Florida recipe and is still the most-used seasoning in the Florida Keys. This homemade table sauce can be splashed on seafood, salads and fresh vegetables.

2 cups lime juice
1 tablespoon salt

Strain juice through a doubled cheesecloth in a funnel into a clean bottle. Add salt, shake the bottle well, and tie a square of clean cloth over the top of the bottle. Let the sauce age in a dark cupboard for 6 or 8 weeks. It should have an acid-salty flavor with a bite on the tongue.

Cork the bottle, and the sauce keeps indefinitely. There is no need to refrigerate this sauce, and the older it gets the better.
