Salmorejois a classic soup made primarily with tomatoes and bread. It’s best with a splash of sherry vinegar, but Andalusian tomatoes pack a good hit of acidity, so they often omit it in Spain. It’s also frequently made withpan de telera,a type of hard roll, which thickens the soup, but anything from a ciabatta to a rustic white loaf is good here.Slideshow:More Cold Soup Recipes
