I kid you not…the Romesco sauce is really out of this world! If you’re an avid follower of this blog, you may recollect that I wrote about this Romesco sauce in one of my previous posts. One key here is to roast your red peppers. Do not use the jared ones; as you may find recommended in a lot of quick Romesco recipes. I just don’t think it can achieve the same deep flavor. Don’t get me wrong I do like shortcuts as much as the next person, but in this instance the little extra effort is rewarded. It doesn’t take long to roast the peppers and other veggies, but the ultimate outcome is outstanding.

I found this recipe for Pasta with Green Beans, Tuna, Olives and Romesco in “The Mediterrasian Way” cookbook few years ago, right before Thanksgiving. I was hosting for the holidays and had about 5 family members coming over the night before Thanksgiving. I was preparing most of the dishes for Thanksgiving so I didn’t want to spend a lot of time cooking dinner in the kitchen the night before. So I made this Romesco sauce the day before. When everyone arrived I cooked penne and green beans, opened a can of tuna, tossed everything together with the Romesco and the dinner was ready. Everybody really loved it and it almost stole the show from Thanksgiving dinner the next day.

So if you find yourself needing to have a quick dinner on the table, prepare the Romesco sauce the day before and then use my recipe for this amazing Linguine with Broccoli and Romesco Sauce and you will be done in no time.
