Smoky Salmorejo

- 1 tablespoon sherry vinegar
- 1/4 cup smoked olive oil, plus more for drizzling
- Kosher salt
- 4 seedless green grapes, thinly sliced

- Using a box grater, coarsely grate the cut sides of the tomato halves over a medium bowl until all that remains are the tomato skins; discard the skins.
- Add the bread cubes and toss with the tomatoes.
- Transfer the tomato mixture to a food processor and let stand for 15 minutes until the bread is soft.
- Pulse the tomato mixture with the grated garlic and vinegar until smooth.
- With the machine on, gradually add in the 1/4 cup of smoked olive oil.
- Strain the salmorejo through a fine sieve into a large bowl and season with salt.
- Cover and refrigerate until very cold, at least 1 hour or overnight.
