  • About

Although salmorejo originated in Córdoba, neighbouring Seville has taken to it with passion. It is basically a thicker, creamier version of gazpacho, and it works equally well as a soup or dip. The most important element, the tomatoes, must be plump and juicy or the soup will lack its raison d’ître.

Ingredients

  • 500 g (1 lb 2 oz) ripe tomatoes
  • 225

Method

  1. Combine the tomatoes and bread in a blender and mix well. Add the oil, vinegar, garlic, salt and pepper and blend until smooth and thick.
  2. Serve as a dip with chunks of French bread or as a soup, drizzled with extra virgin olive oil. You may add a sprinkling of diced serrano ham and chopped hard-boiled egg if desired.
