MY RECIPE - SALMOREJO

Ingredients:
6 tomatoes, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1/4 cup vinegar
1 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon salt
2 day-old Spanish bread rolls, about 3 ounces each, torn
into pieces and soaked into 1 cup water for 10 minutes, or 2
fresh rolls, torn into pieces
1 egg yolk (optional)
3 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and finely chopped
3 ounces spanish ham, finely chopped

Method
First, in a large bowl, combine the tomatoes, garlic, vinegar, olive
oil, salt, and soaked bread and mix well.
Next, add the tomato mixture to a blender or food processor
and process at high speed until smooth. For an specially smooth
texture, pass the pureed mixture through a food mill fitted with
the medium plate, and then, if desired, return it to the blender or Salmorejo (chilled tomato soup)
processor, add the egg yolk, and process until well incorporated.
Then, transfer to a bowl, cover, and refrigerate for at least 4
hours, or until well chilled.
Just before serving, taste the soup and adjust the seasoning with
salt.
Finally, garnish with the chopped eggs and ham, and serve.
