Step 1 of 3
Ajo Blanco
Put the bread in a bowl and pour over half the water (about 350 ml). Let it soak for 10 minutes.
Step 2
Blend the soaked bread, almonds, olive oil, garlic, red wine vinegar, and salt with the remaining water (about 350 ml) until completely smooth — a good 2–3 minutes in a blender for a silky texture.
Step 3
Chill in the fridge for at least 1 hour. Serve drizzled with extra olive oil and a grind of black pepper.
