Extra Tips:
* TOPPINGS are just as important as the salmorejo. You would never have a salmorejo without a boiled egg or Spanish ham (jamon) But other alternatives are apple, celery or whatever you feel like.
* Don't use too much vinegar. In large quantities it's very bad for you!
* As long as you taste as you go along you really cant go wrong with this really simple Spanish dish
*Many people choose not to use a raw egg in their Salmorejo. From our experience it tastes just as good with or without.
