What is Lubenista sauce?
Lubenista sauce is a cooked vegetable spread made mainly from roasted peppers and tomatoes, with oil added for richness. It is reminiscent of the pepper-and-tomato relishes found in Balkan cooking, though recipes vary in texture and heat.
Its flavour is gently smoky and sweet, balanced by the tang of tomato. Spread it on toast or flatbread, serve it as a dip, or offer it alongside grilled vegetables and meats. It brings vegetables and fibre to a meal, while the added oil makes it more substantial than a plain tomato relish. For a lighter serving, use a thin spread and pair it with fresh vegetables or beans.
