Fast, easy, and tasty. I served this on a slice of sourdough bread on top of a seafood stew.
Sorry, but all Rouille is better with the original pinch of Saffron. I know it’s added to the stew from original article, but this is a multi-use sauce (once you try it), and the saffron should always be included. You just need about 6 strands and you can soak it in the lemon juice to infuse. Also, 2/3 oil may be enough.
I would suggest using a mild olive oil or a mixture of olive oil and another vegetable oil. I used a robust olive oil and the rouille was a little bitter. It was still good and worked well with the bouillabaisse.
