Ingredients

1 (1-inch-long) piece baguette, crust discarded
2 garlic cloves
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 hard-boiled eggs, yolks and whites separated
2 tablespoons Sherry vinegar (preferably "reserva")
1/4 cup mild extra-virgin olive oil (preferably Andalusian hojiblanca)
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 lb ripe tomatoes, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 medium green bell pepper, cut into 1/8-inch dice
2 oz (1/4-inch-thick) slices serrano ham or prosciutto , cut into 1/4-inch dice

Steps:

Soak bread in 1/4 cup water 1 minute, then squeeze dry, discarding soaking water.
Mash garlic to a paste with salt using a mortar and pestle (or mince and mash to a paste with a large knife). Mash garlic paste with bread, yolks, and vinegar using mortar and pestle until smooth (or blend together in a mini food processor). Add oil in a slow stream while stirring constantly (or with motor running) to form a thick sauce. Stir in black pepper.
Finely chop egg whites. Divide sauce among 4 salad plates and sprinkle with whites. Scatter tomatoes over whites and season with salt, then sprinkle with bell pepper and ham.

This salad is a great make-ahead meal. I often make it on the weekend and then eat it for lunch throughout the week.

I love the combination of flavors in this salad. The sweetness of the tomatoes and corn pairs perfectly with the acidity of the vinegar and lemon juice.

I'm not usually a fan of gazpacho, but this salad changed my mind. It's so flavorful and refreshing.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I always have a bunch of random veggies in my fridge and this salad is the perfect way to use them up.
