Now that the weather is warming up, it's time to fire up the grills. And, do you know what goes together with grilled meats and vegetables like Jay-Z and Beyoncé? Romesco sauce! This version of the Spanish condiment sees sweet roasted bell peppers paired with the wholesome taste of almonds, with some chili flakes for a bit of spice. Feel free to experiment with other nuts like cashews or pine nuts, or add roasted and peeled tomatoes for your own version.
Try it on roasted scallions (like they do in Catalonia), zucchini, fish or lamb chops. Hell, just try it with everything!
