Once charred, remove the peppers from the grill and transfer them to a bowl. Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and let them steam for 10 minutes; this makes peeling easier.
Peel away the blackened skin, discard the seeds and veins, then roughly chop the roasted pepper flesh. Add the chopped peppers to a food processor.
Romesco sauce is versatile; serve it at room temperature or chilled. If you need to warm it, do so gently over low heat.
Be careful not to overheat the sauce, as it can separate. If it does, simply pour it into a blender and process for 1 minute to bring it back together.
