Soup and stock basics

Soups make an elegant and exciting first course for any meal. With a good base stock, some vegetables and meaty bones you can make a meal in a bowl and serve simply with fresh bread. Don't forget the best soups have a homemade stock base.

Ajo blanco

Ajo blanco comes from Malaga and it is one of the many gazpacho soups found in Spain. If you feel you would like to try preparing it in the traditional way, do everything in the same order, but use mortar and pestle. Put the paste in a big bowl before adding water. This chilled soup is a natural source of E vitamin from the olive oil and almonds.
