Salmorejo is a traditional Spanish dish from Córdoba, in the Andalusian region. This chilled tomato-based soup offers a refreshing and delicious way to celebrate the natural flavors of ripe tomatoes, garlic, extra virgin olive oil, and bread. Normally topped with pieces of jamón and boiled egg, this vegan rendition uses croutons and sun-dried tomatoes. Unlike many soups, salmorejo is served cold, making it a perfect dish for hot summer days!

Malheureusement je n'ai pas aimé. J'ai préféré la recette de gaspacho qui est je trouve plus riche en goût. Celle ci est grasse en bouche à cause des 60ml d'huile d'olive (et encore, étonnée je n'ai mis que 4 cl)

Thanks so much for sharing the feedback, Marguerite! I’m sorry to hear this one wasn’t to your taste. Salmorejo is traditionally made with a generous amount of olive oil, which helps give it a rich, creamy texture, but I can see how it could feel too oily if that’s not what you’re after. I’m glad you found the gazpacho more flavourful, though! 🧡

I’m usually not a big fan of cold soup but had to look for one as I got my wisdom tooth removed - This recipe changed my mind and will definitely do it again !

As a spaniard with roots in Andalusia, I can say that my gran prepares this in pretty much the same way, and it’s delicious!
