Salmorejo

Salmorejo, sometimes known as ardoria or ardorío, is a traditional creamy soup originating from Andalusia, southern Spain, made of pear tomato, bread, extra virgin olive oil and garlic. The salmorejo is served cold and may be garnished with diced Spanish ibérico ham and diced hard-boiled eggs. The recipe has its origin in the word "aliño" (dressing) and in principle it was a sauce composed of water, vinegar, salt and oil to season the rabbit. It will be after the discovery of the New World when the tomato is incorporated. First references to the word "salmorejo" date back to the 17th century, being a transitional soup between the old and new world.
