Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 120 grams Blanched almonds
- 2 units Garlic cloves
- 100 grams Day-old bread (crust removed)
- 500 milliliters Cold water
- 80 milliliters Extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons White wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 60 grams White grapes (seedless)
- 4 units Ice cubes (optional)
Instructions
Place the blanched almonds in a blender or food processor.
Add the garlic cloves, day-old bread, and half of the cold water to the blender.
Blend until a smooth paste forms, scraping down the sides if needed.
With the blender running on low, slowly drizzle in the olive oil to emulsify the mixture and create a creamy texture.
Add the white wine vinegar, salt, and the remaining water to the blender, then blend again until fully incorporated.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, adding more salt or vinegar to your preference.
Transfer the gazpacho to a large bowl or pitcher and chill it in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.
Before serving, peel and halve the white grapes. Set them aside for garnishing.
Serve the Malaga Gazpacho in bowls or glasses, adding a few grape halves to each portion. Add ice cubes for extra chill if desired.
