Calçots / How to make calçots

romesco sauce

🥗Healthier: salsa verde

💰Cheaper: tomato sauce

Salsa verde offers a fresh flavor while being lighter.

Prepare the fire using wood instead of charcoal for a strong flame.

Clean the calçots by removing excess dirt and mud from the roots, but do not scrub them too much to keep them natural.

Place the calçots one by one on the grill without overcrowding.

Wait until the fire is very strong before placing the calçots on the grill.

Cook the calçots for about 4 to 5 minutes on each side, depending on their size.

Remove the calçots when they are done and wrap them in newspaper to keep warm.

If newspaper is not available, use parchment paper to keep the calçots warm inside.

Enjoy the calçots once they are all cooked.
