Chickpeas with salmorejo is a traditional dish from southern Spain, specifically Andalusia. It consists of cooked chickpeas served with salmorejo, a cold soup made with tomatoes, garlic, bread, olive oil and vinegar.
To make it, soak dried chickpeas in water overnight and then cook them until tender. For the salmorejo, blend ripe tomatoes, garlic, bread, olive oil and vinegar until smooth. When both are ready, simply serve the chickpeas in a bowl and pour the salmorejo over them.
Chickpeas with salmorejo is a refreshing, filling dish, perfect for warm days. It’s also a great source of protein, fiber and vitamins.
