In hot Spain, cold gazpacho soup is traditionally prepared in summer, but another refreshing soup, served cold, is not inferior in popularity to it. It's about salmorejo.

- - 500 gr. ripe tomatoes;
- - 100 gr. white bread (a little dried up);
- - 2-3 cloves of garlic;
- - salt;

Instructions
Step 1
First, boil the hard-boiled egg and set it aside to cool.
