“Boqueria’s Ensalada Cogollos is a signature salad – crunchy romaine, hazelnuts, mint and Idiazabal cheese, topped with a delicious romesco vinaigrette, which lends not only hearty, bold flavor but also wonderful texture from the breadcrumbs in the romesco, a traditional Catalan sauce made by blending deeply roasted tomatoes, toasted bread, fried hazelnuts and parsley. “This salad – a kind of Catalonian Caesar – features a dressing created by thinning our thick romesco sauce with olive oil and sherry vinegar. Romaine leaves are coated in the rich, nutty dressing and topped with smoky crumbled Idiazabal cheese. We toss on a confetti of torn mint leaves and crushed hazelnuts to add some crunch and fresh notes,” said executive chef Marc Vidal.”
