Thoroughly wash and cut anchovy fillets into small pieces. Chop the parsley, soak breadcrumbs in the vinegar and drain. Mince the garlic.

Place all ingredients in a mixing bowl; add the olive oil in a slow steady stream while stirring continuously until you get a dense sauce. Add pepper to taste. The addition of capers, onion, and hard boiled egg yolks is optional.

This sauce is excellent with boiled mixed meats (bollito misto).
