Postup

Krok za krokom

1
Bring a medium pot of water to a rolling boil over high heat.
Približne 2 min
Poznámka kuchára: Ensure the water is vigorously boiling for quick and effective blanching.
2
Carefully drop the ripe tomatoes into the boiling water and blanch for 30-60 seconds, or until their skins just begin to crack.
Približne 1 min
Poznámka kuchára: Blanching loosens the tomato skins, making them much easier to peel and contributing to a smoother soup texture.
3
Immediately transfer the blanched tomatoes from the hot water into a large bowl filled with ice water to halt the cooking process.
Približne 1 min
Poznámka kuchára: An ice bath prevents the tomatoes from cooking further and helps preserve their fresh flavor and color.
4
Once cooled, peel the skins from the tomatoes, then core them and roughly chop into large pieces.
Približne 5 min
Poznámka kuchára: The skins should slip off easily after blanching and cooling. Remove any tough core material for a better texture.
5
In a high-speed blender or food processor, combine the chopped tomatoes, stale bread, peeled garlic clove, 80 ml of extra virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar, and salt.
Približne 2 min
Poznámka kuchára: Using stale bread is crucial for the traditional thick, creamy texture of salmorejo. Fresh bread will make the soup too watery.
6
Blend the mixture on high speed for 3-5 minutes until it is completely smooth and creamy, pausing to scrape down the sides of the blender as needed.
Približne 5 min
Poznámka kuchára: For an exceptionally silky texture, pass the blended salmorejo through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any remaining seeds or small skin fragments.
7
Taste the salmorejo and adjust the seasoning with additional salt or red wine vinegar if desired.
Približne 1 min
Poznámka kuchára: The balance of acidity and salt is key. Add small amounts and re-taste until it's perfect for your palate.
8
Pour the salmorejo into an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until thoroughly chilled.
Približne 1 h
Poznámka kuchára: Chilling is essential; it allows the flavors to meld and deepen, and the soup to thicken to its characteristic consistency.
9
Before serving, divide the chilled salmorejo among individual bowls.
Približne 1 min
10
Garnish each serving with finely chopped hard-boiled egg and a generous drizzle of the remaining 15 ml of extra virgin olive oil.
Približne 1 min
Poznámka kuchára: The hard-boiled egg and olive oil are classic garnishes that add richness and texture, enhancing the overall experience.

Správne uchovanie

Poznámka kuchára:

This Salmorejo is a fantastic light lunch or a refreshing starter for a summer meal. Serve it with crusty bread for dipping, or alongside a simple green salad. For a non-vegetarian option, crispy jamón serrano can be added as a garnish instead of or in addition to the hard-boiled egg. A dry sherry or a crisp white wine pairs beautifully with its bright flavors.

Skladovanie

Store leftover salmorejo in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Do not add garnishes until serving.

Ohrievanie

Salmorejo is served chilled. If it has thickened too much in the refrigerator, you can stir in a tablespoon or two of cold water or extra virgin olive oil to reach the desired consistency.
