This sauce is the quintessence of Catalan cuisine. Romesco is the kind of preparation that goes well with any kind of savoury food, but it is also so good that I wouldn’t mind eating it with a spoon straight from the container. If you’ve never tried this delicacy before and you are passionate about rich and tasty sauces, then giving this preparation a go seems to be just the right step to take.
