Although salmorejo and any cold soup is a more typical summer dish, there are recipes that have a place at any time of the year. One example is Ardoría, a typical recipe from Osuna, in Seville, which is very similar to the classic Andalusian salmorejo, but with some variation. It is said to be named after the burning sensation produced by certain salmorejos caused by garlic and peppers.
On the occasion of Andalusia Day, which is celebrated on 28 February, we show you how to prepare this typical recipe that you may not have known before.
