Country-Style Cold Soup (Gazpacho Campestre)

This dish has a story from the countryside of Jaén. In the past, farmers would eat it during the grain harvest because it was refreshing in the intense heat. It’s still remembered and enjoyed in every home in Jaén, and in my family, we make it every summer. I love keeping our traditional cuisine alive.
