Sauce Piquillos is a vibrant, mildly sweet and smoky condiment originating from Spanish cuisine, specifically the Navarra region, where piquillo peppers are celebrated. The sauce is crafted from roasted piquillo peppers, olive oil, garlic, and a touch of vinegar, yielding a velvety texture and rich flavor. Occasionally, chefs enhance it with ingredients like almonds, onions, or paprika for added depth. Nutritionally, Sauce Piquillos is remarkably healthy, as it's low in calories and fat, thanks to the natural sweetness and minimal oil used. Piquillo peppers are rich in vitamins A and C, powerful antioxidants that support skin health and immune function. Olive oil adds heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, while garlic contributes potential anti-inflammatory benefits. However, moderation is key if additional oil or salt is incorporated. Versatile and nutritious, Sauce Piquillos is a wholesome way to elevate grilled vegetables, fish, or toasted breads with a Mediterranean flair.
