I made this for dinner this evening. Oh my! So good! I served it with asparagus and seared scallops along with some crusty bread to clean the plates of the sauce. I didn’t have any nora peppers, but used some ancho chiles. Can’t wait to see what else this sauce pairs well with!

Here in Santiago is a restaurant/tapas bar called Petiscos Do Cardeal that has a similar dish. Asparagus in tempura with Romesco sauce - simply delicious!

I can definitely confirm that romesco doesn’t keep, not because it’s highly perishable but because once there’s a jar open in the house I keep looking for things to eat it with. And yet, for some reason, I didn’t think of asparagus! Wonderful idea. I’ll be giving this treatment to all sorts of vegetables aa well, as they come in and out of season all summer.

Update: I 10 out of 10 recommend putting this on chicken wings halfway through cooking 🥹 you’ve never had better wings
