Romesco is a classic Spanish sauce made with almonds, garlic, peppers, and any number of other ingredients.  It is easy to make, stores well, goes with a wide variety of items, and is surprisingly good for you.  This weekend I served it with grilled beef tenderloin and scallop skewers, but it would also go well with grilled vegetables, chicken, etc. Continue reading ‘Romesco Sauce’
