Mazamorra

Mazamorra is a simple, yet flavorful traditional cold soup that originates from the southern region of Andalusia, particularly Cordoba, and is made primarily from bread, garlic, olive oil, salt, and vinegar, thickened with ground almonds. The consistency is typically creamy, similar to a thick soup or a puree.

This dish is served cold, making it especially popular in the hot summer months. It's typically garnished with ingredients like hard-boiled eggs, fruits like apples and grapes, or pieces of ham, which add texture and flavor contrasts to the creamy base.

Mazamorra is similar to ajo blanco, another popular cold soup in Spanish cuisine, but differs in regard to some ingredients, such as breadcrumbs (uses more), almonds (uses less), and traditional garnishes.
