Romesco SauceMikkel Vang

This dip is our version of a Catalan sauce that has many variations and tastes great with almost any type of grilled meat or fish. It's worth the extra trouble to use hazelnuts (which need peeling), as well as almonds. Even though 2 tablespoons of hazelnuts seems a small amount, they round out the flavor of the sauce.

Cooks' note:

Sauce can be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Bring to room temperature before serving. *Available at Latino markets, many supermarkets, and kitchenmarket.com.
