I have had the recipe for quite a while now and had almost forgotten about it. Not difficult to make, by any means. Successful in the outcome. Would need to be served in small portions...enjoy! :) Ingredients:
* 1 cup whole blanched and peeled almonds |
* 2 cups stale white bread, cut in cubes, without crust |
* 6 tbsp olive oil |
* 2 cups very cold water |
* 2 large garlic cloves |
* 1.5 tsp kosher salt |
* 4 tbsp sherry vinegar |
for the garnish |
* a few walnuts |
* chives |
* black cherry tomatoes, if you can find some (use red otherwise) |
*seedless white grapes (optional) |
Directions:
1. * In a bowl, combine the bread cubes with enough water to cover it. Set aside.
2. * In a food processor, combine the almonds, garlic and salt. Mix until it is smooth.
3. * Squeeze the excess water out of the bread cubes and add the bread to the preparation, in the food processor.
4. * Mix well until it forms a paste. While the food processor is on, add the oil in a thin, steady stream.
5. * Then add the vinegar and the water. Pulse until the preparation is smooth.
6. * For the garnish, dry toast your walnuts in a frying pan.
7. * Cut the tomatoes in tiny cubes.
8. * Chop the chives thinly.
9. * Place a ladlefull of soup in bowls or small shot glasses, and add some garnish with a dash of olive oil.
