INSTRUCTIONS
Prepare the romesco sauce: If using a dried pepper, remove the stem
and seeds from the pepper and soak in warm water for 1 hour, or until
softened. Scrape off the flesh and discard skin. If using a roasted
pepper, remove the charred skin, stem, and seeds, and chop. Set aside.
In a food processor, finely chop the bread and almonds. Add the salt,
pepper, garlic, tomato and reserved flesh of the pepper. Process to a
smooth paste. With the motor running, add the olive oil in a thin
stream, until mixture is the consistency of a thick, creamy sauce. Add
the warm water as needed to help thin the sauce if necessary. Adjust
the seasonings, transfer to a bowl and set aside at room temperature
or chill until ready to serve. Preheat a grill or broiler, and preheat
an oven to 400 degrees. Trim the roots off the onions and spread them
over the grill. Grill the onions until charred all over but not dried
out, turning frequently. Transfer the onions to a large roasting pan,
cover tightly and roast in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes. Serve the
onions steaming hot, strip back the charred outer skin, dip the onions
in the romesco sauce, eat the white bottoms and discard the top. This
recipe yields 4 to 6 servings. Recipe Source: TOO HOT TAMALES WORLD
