This dip is designed for immediate enjoyment. It can be served chilled or at room temperature. For a more intense flavor, you can gently warm it.

Consider incorporating it into your cooking by stirring it into pasta dishes, using it as a base for a quick sauce for chicken or fish, or spreading it generously on grilled sandwiches. Its bold flavor can transform simple ingredients into something special.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike smoother dips, romesco often has a slightly coarser texture due to the blended nuts and peppers. Its flavor is more robust and complex than many tomato-based dips, with a distinct nuttiness and a hint of smokiness from the roasted ingredients.
