[recipe] Bloody Mary Salmorejo

Posted on July 29, 2022August 16, 2022 By admin

2 thick slices white bread, toasted, torn into bite-size pieces
1 kg tomatoes
1 tbsp red wine vinegar
1 tsp smoked paprika
2/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste

Halved jammy eggs, prosciutto or jamon Serrano, stuffed green olives, pickled onions and/or gherkins(for serving; optional)

Crushed red pepper flakes and finely chopped parsley (for serving)

Purée bread, tomatoes, vinegar, and paprika in a blender until smooth; season mixture generously with salt and pepper. With the motor running, gradually stream in oil and blend until emulsified. Transfer soup to an airtight container; cover and chill until very cold, at least 30 minutes.

Ladle soup into bowls and top with egg halves and prosciutto if using. Thread olives, onions, and/or gherkins of your choice onto skewers and set across bowls (or serve toppings alongside soup).

Sprinkle some red pepper flakes and parsley and more black pepper on top.

[recipe] Cold-brew concentrate / iced coffee

Posted on July 29, 2022August 16, 2022 By admin

Concentrate

1 cup whole coffee beans
4 cups water

1. Grind the coffee beans on the coarsest setting on your grinder, or in short 1-second pulses in a spice grinder. The grounds should look like coarse cornmeal, not fine powder. You should have just under 1 cup of grounds.

2. Transfer the coffee grounds to the container you’re using to make the cold brew. Pour the water over top. Stir gently with a long-handled spoon to make sure the grounds are thoroughly saturated with water.

3. Cover the jar with a lid. Let the coffee steep for about 12 hours. The coffee can be left on the counter or refrigerated; steeping time is the same.

4. Line a small strainer with cheesecloth or flour sack cloth and place over a large measuring cup or bowl. Pour the coffee through the strainer.

5. Transfer the coffee to a small bottle or jar and store in the fridge for up to a week.

6. Dilute the coffee with as much water or milk as you prefer. Serve over ice.

Long Island iced coffee

1/2 measure whisky
1/2 measure dark rhum
1/2 measure kahlua or Patron XO coffee
1/2 measure baileys
1/2 measure sugar syrup

Fill large glass with ice. Add booze. Top with cold brew concentrate. Enjoy.
