Cooking Instructions
- 1
In a tall bowl, add the bread that has been soaked in water and lightly squeezed. Add peeled and chopped tomatoes, chopped onion, and a garlic clove.
- 2
Add the chopped red and green bell peppers. I like to use Italian green and red peppers because they are very aromatic and work well for gazpacho.
- 3
Add the peeled and chopped cucumber, vinegar, a bit of freshly squeezed lemon juice, some salt, and of course, a generous pour of extra virgin olive oil.
- 4
Blend everything together using a blender. Traditionally, a mortar was used to make Andalusian gazpacho, but I blend everything at once with a blender.
- 5
Your delicious gazpacho is ready! You can strain the blended soup through a sieve if you want it smoother. Then chill it in the refrigerator until very cold. Serve it very cold—most Andalusian homes enjoy this dish as a refreshing starter to beat the heat.

I served it in a clay bowl as is traditional and garnished it with pieces of all the vegetables used in the gazpacho.

Gazpacho Gazpacho
I love gazpacho. I've been experimenting to find the perfect balance of ingredients to suit my taste. I've made them slightly sour to enjoy even when you've lost your appetite on a hot summer day.You can go ahead and change the measurements to your liking. I do recommend, however, using only a small amount of the onion and garlic. I also like to squeeze some lemon onto this soup before serving. Also keep in mind that the flavors of the soup will mellow out on the following day. Recipe by Setsubunhijiki cookpad.japan -

I made my own refreshing and tart version of a gazpacho that I love.Use as ripe a tomato as you can.If you can't get very ripe tomatoes, you could also use tomato juice with no added salt.Adjust the amount of vinegar according to your preference. If you have it, using sherry vinegar will give the gazpacho an even more authentic taste. Recipe by pichans cookpad.japan -
