A tuna and anchovy salad is already a delicacy. However, what do you tell me if we also present it on a gazpacho jelly? Spectacular, right? That is not all... The recipe that Margarita sends us (from the blog Entre amigos) for our special salad contest it has several special touches that make it perfect for this summer.

If you have never prepared a gazpacho jelly, don’t panic. Although it sounds complex, it is easier than it seems, and Margarita explains perfectly how to do it.

Moreover, while the base of our salad cools, we can take advantage to roast the peppers.

Our White Tuna and our cantabrian Anchovies provide the perfect marine touch to this refreshing and surprising salad.

Finally, the final touch, adding a surprising pistachio oil to the salad (like gazpacho jelly, although it sounds complicated, it is easier than it seems).
