Seven Cold Soups around the World

There are plenty of cold soups beyond gazpacho though its savoury umami hit is endlessly refreshing. Ring the changes with watermelon gazpacho garnished with pickled watermelon rind for a truly zeitgeist, zero-waste soup. Andalusian salmorejo, a speciality of Cordoba, memorably served by Paco Morales at El Bar de Paco Morales with the addition of orange, is another great alternative. Salmorejo is a thicker and creamier emulsion consisting of tomato and bread with oil, garlic and vinegar. The cold purée is usually garnished with diced Serrano ham and hard boiled egg.
