During the end of winter and beginning of spring it is possible to taste one of the most tradicional dishes from Tarragona the "
calçots", a tender barbecued onion with
"romesco" sauce. Those green onions come from Tarragona , but now you can find "calçotades" all over Catalonia.
Last Saturday my family and me went to Renau, Tarragona, for having a "calçotada", the perfect excuse for having fun and drinking some wine from
Priorat county with relatives and friends

The "calçots" before being cooked and the "romesco" sauce |

The "calçots" already barbecued |

All the people around the table sharing the "calçotada", as you can see, it is not a formal meal |
The "calçot" eating process, it is not very clean and sometimes we need bibs
