Salmorejo is a traditional Spanish cold soup, originating from the region of Andalusia. It is primarily made from ripe tomatoes, bread, olive oil, vinegar, and garlic, blended into a smooth, creamy texture. This dish is often served chilled, making it a refreshing option during hot weather.
Typically garnished with diced hard-boiled eggs and jamón serrano (Spanish cured ham), salmorejo is a popular appetizer or light meal. It is similar to gazpacho, another cold soup, but salmorejo is thicker and creamier due to the higher bread content.
