Instructions
- 1
Tear the bread into chunks, pour the cold water over it and let it soak for 10 minutes.
- 2
Roughly chop the tomatoes, peel and chop the cucumber, deseed and chop the pepper, and peel the garlic. Add everything to a blender together with the soaked bread.
- 3
Blend on high for 2–3 minutes until completely smooth. With the motor running, stream in the olive oil, then season with the sherry vinegar and salt.
- 4
For an extra-silky texture, pass the soup through a fine sieve. Cover and chill for at least 2 hours.
- 5
Serve ice-cold in bowls, finished with a drizzle of olive oil and, if you like, a scattering of finely diced cucumber and pepper.
