Romesco is the Tarragona coast's red sauce of dried nyora peppers, roasted tomato and garlic, toasted almonds and hazelnuts and bread, served with grilled fish, vegetables and calçots.
Romesco is credited to the fishermen of El Serrallo, Tarragona's fishing quarter, who first used the word for a fish stew thickened with a fried picada of almonds, hazelnuts, garlic, bread and dried red romesco pepper. That stew, the romesco de peix, is still cooked along this coast, including in Cambrils. The cold sauce called simply romesco probably grew out of it and spread from the 1960s, as tourism arrived; it is also the sauce for the calçotada.
