Thanks for this lively, informative article. It makes me want to fire up the grill right now! Glad I shoveled a path out to it last weekend. For those of us without access to Calcots, I suppose there's no real substitute. Green onions would be too small and not sweet enough. Sweet onions, if even available this time of year, are probably too large to get the same effect. But, we must play the cards we are dealt. Grilled onions of any kind are fabulous and I'm sure the Romesco sauce and Cava would translate.

Thanks for the very warm compliment. And yes, I highly suggest you make your way to the grill this weekend, as there is nothing as fulfilling and delicious on a cold winter's day than freshly grilled food! Whether you place a pile of onions, squash, potatoes, steak or even layers of artichoke coating in a thick layer of butter, is irrelevant, because whatever you put on the grill always seems to pair well with cava - especially around this time of the year!

We promise to eat an extra handful of calcots in your honor, as long as you promise to have some perfectly grilled Argentinean meat for us! And, if you happen to have a few hot and spicy dishes in our honor, we won't complain ;-)
