ROMESCO SAUCE

4. Place on a serving platter and serve the extra Romesco sauce on the side.
Makes 8 servings.
Romesco Sauce:
1. Heat the olive oil in a large saute pan over high heat until smoking.
2. Separately saute the garlic, bell pepper, tomatoes, chiles and bread cubes until lightly browned, about 2 minutes each.
3. Remove each ingredient with a slotted spoon as it's done.
4. Deglaze the pan with the vinegar and red wine (you can pour both in at the same time).
5. Place all the sauteed ingredients and the deglazing liquid into a food processor and blend until smooth.
6. Add the hazelnuts and process until finely chopped.
7. Add the honey and season to taste with salt and pepper.
Makes about 2½ cups.
