Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 (12 oz) jar roasted red peppers, drained
  • 1/4 cup blanched almonds
  • 1 clove garlic, smashed
  • 1 tbsp sherry vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Method
 

  1. In a blender, combine the peppers, almonds, garlic, vinegar, paprika, and salt. Pulse until a rough paste forms.
  2. With the motor running, slowly pour in the olive oil and blend until smooth, about 30 seconds. Taste and adjust salt or vinegar. Serve or refrigerate.

Notes

The sauce thickens as it sits; stir in a splash of water if needed. For a deeper flavor, toast the almonds in a dry pan over medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes and let them cool before blending.
