unetetebruleeA repost of our recipe for Romesco sauce:
With a paper towel, gently rub six tomatoes with olive oil. Roast them, plus a whole bulb of garlic and an onion (peeled), on a hot oven (190ºC/374ºF) for 30 to 45 minutes. Squeeze the garlic flesh in a big bowl, discarding the skins. Peel the tomatoes and put them and the onion in the same bowl.
(We also use a kind of dried pepper called nyora, which are small and round. We soak one nyora in water for a bit —usually while the other vegetables are roasting— and then carefully scrap the flesh from the skin and add it in with the roasted tomatoes, garlic and onion. I really don’t know what could be a good substitute, though. Nyores have a sweet and slightly smoky taste, if that helps at all.)
To the vegetables, add one slice of fried bread, around ten roasted hazelnuts, one tablespoon of vinegar (my mom uses balsamic vinegar, but any kind should work well), four tablespoons of olive oil, and salt to taste. Blend everything together until everything’s combined into a smooth, creamy sauce.
