  • We stop the blender and add the stale breadcrumbs, the vinegar and the salt to the previous ingredients and blend again until we obtain a homogeneous lump-free mixture.
  • With the blender running, add the olive oil little by little in the form of threads to the mixture until a fine and homogeneous emulsion is achieved, and then we reserve the beet and strawberry salmorejo for a few minutes in the refrigerator until serving time.
