Adapted from the excellent Simple Spanish Food website. It’s meant to be drunk from a glass or cup. 2 servings.
Ingredients:
1 lb nice tomatoes
1 clove garlic, peeled and chopped
2 T good olive oil
1/2 t Kosher salt
1 t champagne vinegar
Method: Put the garlic into the blender along with salt, oil and vinegar. Blend to pulverize the garlic. Wash the tomatoes; remove stem and any bad bits and coarsely chop. Add to blender and blend until liquefied. Refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving.
Note: If the flavor seems too sunny and one-dimensional, try adding a dash of Tabasco, a bit of salt or an extra splash of vinegar.
