White Gazpacho

This ancient and classic Spanish chilled soup comes from Málaga. The recipe is a culinary legacy of the Moors, who adored almonds, the soup’s main ingredient. Ajo blanco is usually served with grapes, or sometimes with raisins and apple or melon. Traditionally the ingredients are pounded together in a mortar and pestle, but a food processor works very well. At Moro, we use sherry vinegar instead of white wine vinegar for a more complex flavour.
