What is GAZPACHUELO

There are few things more from Málaga than gazpachuelo, a humble, mild mayonnaise soup, that has evolved to be a high cuisine dish. But the reaction to "tempered mayonnaise soup" isn't always the best outside of Malaga.

I have often met faces of surprise and even disgust.


This documentary tells the history behind this dish, its main variations and its evolution to the high cuisine, an evolution that goes parallel to the city where it is so loved. Because, as they say, we are what we eat, or even yet, what we cook.


You will meet gazpachuelo enthusiasts, chefs, grannys, journalists and historians. Our goal is to entertain and enlighten on gastronomy and history with a sober tone,

but in an amicable way for all audiences. Our goal is to make this dish well known outside of Malaga.


Gazpachuelo also wants to "feed" others. Therefore, 100% of the film's earnings will be destined to the soup kitchen

Yo Soy Tú. Gazpachuelo premiered at the 24th Edition of the Málaga Film Festival 2021, with the Sponsorhip of Fundación Málaga, Cervezas Victoria, Sabor a Málaga (County Council of Malaga) and the help of many people.
