Hola everybody. There are just some things about Spain I’ll always love and this incredibly deep flavor sauce is one of them. If there are other sauces you want to see me make, just jot them down in the comments and let me know! XO C
Thanks! This was the most authentic romesco sauce recipe that I've found so far on RUclips. (One entry claimed it was Italian! ) I was able to buy ñoras at the market in Sitges (south of Barcelona) as well as marcona almonds a week ago to be able to make romesco sauce when I got back home. I also was able to find ñora paste at the market there. I've tried making it a couple times (a lot simpler version than the one you showed here!)
Thanks, John. Clearly you are an expert about this sauce. It has really helped to live here and learn the authentic way to prepare these traditional sauces too. Cheers, Caroline
Congratulations for this recipe. It's the only one video about romesco sauce I've seen being correct. 99% of videos use a red pepper base which is incorrect. Sometimes cooks use red pepper or onion. But the traditional base uses only tomato and garlic as a greens base to this sauce. Don't know where this mistake comes from, but as catalan as cook I cannot figure out how this recipe it's been so mistaken. Thanks for being correct.
Dan, thanks so much. Being a non-native, I’m trying really hard to educate myself about the traditions and I’m glad to see that somebody out there recognizes it! My adventure and education continues everyday…
Hi there EL and thanks for joining in the conversation on my channel. I’ll be interested in hearing what you think of it when you give it a try. I think the bit of tang and spice is what makes it so tasty, but you tell me! Cheers, Caroline
HI Angela - Well, I am working on revising my website to include all the recipes so that they can be printed out easily but it is a big job and taking some time. However, I have finished this particular recipe and you can find it and print it out at this link: www.mediterraneanminutes.com/recipe-view/romesco-sauce-one-of-the-essential-sauces-of-spain/
Well here’s another one to add to my list of “must try.” What is the name of those peppers? I couldn’t quite pick it up; my old ears don’t always catch everything. Since my palate is very wimpy I’ll probably reduce the amount of them. I love well seasoned but not real spicy. Thanks much.
Hi Linda - The name of the chili is a nora (with a little squiggle over the N) and I think it could be tough to find in your neck of the woods.but if you can find a smoky, very mild (almost no spice) chile, that would work just as well. It really doesn't give any spice, just mostly a deep smoke so you would enjoy it if you could find it. But the most important ingredient is the fresh red bell peppers and I know you can find plenty of those! Cheers, Caroline
