What to use in Romesco sauce?
I made my dip recipe with classic soft almonds, oven baked snackpepper, sun dried tomatoes, garlic, lemon and basil. I made it the other day with this fresh baked bread and what a perfect combination. Next time i will try making the recipe with a pasta dish. It might be a perfect combination too.
I hope you’ll use this recipes. I think it is so much worth to try – and it’s definitely not the last time I’m making it I actually ended up eating only this including the sourdough bread the whole evening, haha..
