GAZPACHO ANDALUZ (SPANISH COLD TOMATO SOUP) RECIPE
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Prepare an ice bath. Set aside.
- Meanwhile, cut a small "X" in the bottom of each tomato, this will help to loosen the skin while blanching. When the water boils , turn off heat, and submerge the tomatoes in the water, about 1 minute.
- With a slotted spoon, transfer the tomatoes to the ice bath.
- Once cool to the touch, remove the tomato skins, starting at the "X" for easy peeling. Discard skins.
- Cut tomatoes in half and squeeze seeds into a small bowl. Discard seeds. Coarsely chop the tomatoes. Set aside.
- Soak the bread in a few tablespoons of water for 1 minute. Gently squeeze dry.
- Place the tomatoes, bread, cucumbers, onion, garlic, and pepper in a blender . Blend, in batches if necessary, until the mixture is smooth.
- Add the vinegar and pulse until it is completely incorporated.
- Some people prefer their gazpacho slightly chunky-it's a matter of personal taste. For a smoother texture, strain the gazpacho and discard the solids.
- Drizzle the oil into the blender with the motor running until completely incorporated.
- Pour the mixture into a large non-metallic bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and more vinegar, if desired. Mix well, cover, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Garnish each serving with the diced cucumber, bell pepper, apple, croutons, and egg, if desired.

BEST GAZPACHO
More of a drink than a soup, served in frosted glasses or chilled tumblers, gazpacho is perfect when it is too hot to eat but you need cold, salt and lunch all at the same time. Gazpacho is everywhere in Seville, Spain, where this recipe comes from, but it's not the watered-down salsa or grainy vegetable purée often served in the United States. This version has no bread and is a creamy orange-pink rather than a lipstick red. That is because a large quantity of olive oil is required for making delicious gazpacho, rather than take-it-or-leave it gazpacho. The emulsion of red tomato juice, palest green cucumber juice and golden olive oil produces the right color and a smooth, almost fluffy texture.

Steps:
- Combine tomatoes, pepper, cucumber, onion and garlic in a blender or, if using a hand blender, in a deep bowl. (If necessary, work in batches.) Blend at high speed until very smooth, at least 2 minutes, pausing occasionally to scrape down the sides with a rubber spatula.
- With the motor running, add the vinegar and 2 teaspoons salt. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil. The mixture will turn bright orange or dark pink and become smooth and emulsified, like a salad dressing. If it still seems watery, drizzle in more olive oil until texture is creamy.
- Strain the mixture through a strainer or a food mill, pushing all the liquid through with a spatula or the back of a ladle. Discard the solids. Transfer to a large pitcher (preferably glass) and chill until very cold, at least 6 hours or overnight.
- Before serving, adjust the seasonings with salt and vinegar. If soup is very thick, stir in a few tablespoons ice water. Serve in glasses, over ice if desired, or in a bowl. A few drops of olive oil on top are a nice touch.

- In a pan reduce shallot, tarragon, chervil, and sherry vinegar until all liquid is gone. Set reduction aside.
- Using a double boiler with a stainless steel bowl heat egg yolks until you achieve a light ribbon. Be careful not to scramble eggs. Add reduction. Slowly whisk butter into mixture 1 piece at a time until fully incorporated. Add Worcestershire and hot pepper sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Fold into the gazpacho and serve immediately.
COLD TOMATO SOUP
The most beautiful tomatoes may not always be the best ones. Often, it's the gnarly, misshapen, split-topped tomatoes that are the sweetest. You can also seek out the nearly overripe must-sell-today tomatoes, which can sometimes be found discounted at farmers markets. Those are perfect for this kind of chilled soup, a no-cook delight that is best made at the end of summer when tomatoes are at their best. Add toast and avocado for a more substantial meal.

Steps:
- Put tomatoes and garlic in a non-reactive bowl and sprinkle with salt. Add 4 tablespoons olive oil, 2 tablespoons vinegar, the black pepper and cayenne. Mix well and leave to macerate for at least 15 minutes, or up to an hour.
- Pulse tomatoes in a food processor or blender until just crushed. Transfer to a strainer or food mill to remove skins and seeds, pressing well to obtain all the juices. You should have about 5 cups. Add enough ice water to yield 6 cups. Stir well, taste and adjust seasoning. Chill on a bowl of ice for 15 minutes or refrigerate for up to several hours.
- Make the pepper relish about 30 minutes before serving: Put diced bell peppers and onions in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1 tablespoon sherry vinegar, mix well and set aside.
- To serve, rub each toast lightly with garlic. Top toasts with thick slices of avocado and season with salt and pepper. Place an avocado toast in each bowl and ladle in about 1 cup of chilled soup per serving. Garnish with a generous spoonful of pepper relish and a sprinkling of parsley and chives.

- If you have a high-speed blender, then you can make this 'instant' gazpacho in just minutes- no need to peel the tomatoes or cucumber!For this version, simply roughly chop all of the vegetables, add all of the ingredients into your blender, and blend it to the required consistency; chunky, slightly chunky, or smooth.For a nice variation, blend half of the ingredients until super smooth, and then add the remaining ingredients and pulse/blend until you reach your desired consistency.
- Prepare the vegetables: Finely dice all the vegetables, making sure to remove the cucumber peel if you want smoother results.
- Taste the gazpacho and adjust the seasonings if necessary.No matter which method you used, it's time to chill the gazpacho soup. That's KEY to the best flavor, as the flavors will meld and marinate. This is particularly important with the raw flavors of onion and garlic.I suggest making this gazpacho at least 3-4 hours in advance and chilling until you're ready to serve.The olive oil can solidify slightly when chilled. For that reason, you may need to remove it from the refrigerator a little while before serving.
- You can serve gazpacho soup in a bowl, mug, or even shot glasses (for appetizer portions). Alternatively, serve in a large glass over ice with a straw!Check the blog post for options on how to garnish this soup!
