Categories     Soup and Stew Recipes

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2oz (60g) bread, 1 or 2 days old, around 1 slice -- approx 3/4 cup once crust removed and diced (weight is without crust)*
1/2 cup cold water, plus more as needed
1 tsp sherry vinegar
1/2 cup blanched almonds (Marcona if possible, approx 80g)
1 small clove garlic
1/2 green apple (ex: Granny Smith), peeled and diced
2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
salt to taste, if needed
1 Tbsp olive oil
6 green grapes, cut in half and any seeds removed

Steps:

  • Place the diced bread in a blender. Sprinkle 1/2 c cold water and sherry vinegar over the bread, then blend until relatively smooth.
  • Add the almonds, garlic and apple and blend until smooth.
  • Carefully, with the blender still running, add the olive oil. (If this is not possible with your blender, add the oil, then blend again.)
  • Add a little more water (around 2 Tbsp - 1/4 cup) to make a smooth, pourable consistency.** Add a little salt, if needed, to taste.
  • Chill the soup, covered, for at least an hour to become well chilled. Or, if not possible, add a couple ice cubes to the mixture and blend them in well.
  • To serve, divide the soup between two bowls and top each with some halved green grapes and a drizzle of olive oil.
