“ Gazpacho” It is difficult to give you definite weights or quantities for this recipe. Sorry!

recipe. Sorry!

Lots of red, ripe tomatoes, cucumber, peppers, old and hard

bread with:

Garlic

Red vinegar

Olive oil

Salt

Water

There might be as many recipes of gazpacho as families are

in Spain!. This is the one I have learned at home.

First, cut the vegetables into pieces by using your blender. You do not need to peel the cucumber or the tomatoes or remove the seeds from anything (at least I never do). Cut some bread and soak it in water. Add it to the blender. Add the olive oil, salt, vinegar and water. And then, beat everything You can experiment with the recipe: some people like “gazpacho” very thick, so they add a lot of bread, while some others like it very liquid, and they add more water instead, or less bread, whatever. Some people get crazy adding garlic, while some others hate it. I prefer gazpacho at room temperature. However, as it is a typical summer dish, it is usually served cold. Enjoy it !
