## Ajo blanco

A dish that does most of the work itself once the pan is hot. Real ingredients, a few clean steps, a quiet kitchen.

Method

0%

1\. Tip the bread into a bowl and pour over 350ml water.

2\. Leave to soak for 10 mins.

3\. Blend the ingredients together with 350ml water and 1 tsp salt.

4\. Let the soup cool in the fridge for 1 hr or so, then serve with a drizzle of oil and some black pepper.

A starter sets the meal. Small portions, clean flavours, hot food hot and cold food cold. The kitchen sins of the night happen here.
