Yes way, José!
Homemade romesco is a heavenly partner for fish, roast chicken or poached egg – anything where the hero flavour on your plate is gentle, ready to be enhanced by a punchy sauce. But let’s get real: if you don’t have time to roast loads of red peppers, laboriously peel them, whizz with almonds and so on, Spanish chef José Pizarro’s in-a-jar version is a tasty time-saving alternative (albeit with slightly less of a flavour hit than the homemade version). While you’re online (and if you’re feeling flush), order a pack of acorn-fed, handslivered jamon Ibérico too – savoury, sweet, sublime.
