Gazpacho

"This is my gram's recipe for the traditional Spanish "salad soup". Good homegrown tomatoes are a must for this recipe. She also blends it quite fine--not totally puréed, but no large chunks either."

  1. Just as I expect gazpacho to taste! The only thing I changed was that I added a little bit of worchestershire sauce (because I'm obsessed with it).
     
  2. Delish. Made for ZWT5. I wish my garden was in full force, this will certainly be used later in the summer. Made for Zingo. I added a bit more juice,oh and by the way, I used V-8, that's what I had on hand. Delish.
     
  3. I also quartered this for the 2 of us, and we didn't finish it either. This was simple but nice. I was afraid using a blender would puree this too much, but I was left with smallish lumps which we liked. Instead of tomato juice we used a veggie blend. I used what I thought were the best looking tomatoes at the store (no home grown for me in the city) which were grape tomatoes. No chopping:). I did add a little veggie blend juice to the blender to make blending easier. Quick, easy, good, healthful. Made for ZWT 5.
     
  4. For this 1st time, I really had to cut the recipe down to just 1/4 of the original, but this makes AN EXTREMELY TASTY SOUP, & I look forward to making it for company another time! Very, very nice! Thanks for sharing! [Tagged, made & reviewed for one of my adoptees in the current Pick-A-Chef]
