UGLY TOMATO GREEN GAZPACHO

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix the tomatoes, cucumber, pepper, onion, parsley, and garlic. Add the 1 ½ teaspoons of sea salt and, using your hands, mix everything together well. Set the bowl aside on your counter for ½ hour, or up to 4 hours.
• Add the vegetable broth, olive oil, white balsamic and lime juice to the bowl with the veggies. Working in batches puree the soup until it is quite smooth. Taste and add more salt as needed.

GREEN GAZPACHO

Steps:

• Roast the poblano pepper directly over a gas burner, turning, until charred all over. (Alternatively, broil the pepper.) Transfer to a cutting board to cool slightly and then peel, seed and chop. Heat the olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes; set aside to cool slightly.
• Put the mint, cucumbers, lemon juice, oil and garlic mixture and chopped poblano in a blender and puree until smooth. Season with salt and black pepper.
• Ladle the gazpacho into 4 small bowls and top evenly with the tomato, chives and crab or shrimp. Drizzle with oil.

CREAMY GREEN GAZPACHO

Steps:

• Reserve one-quarter of the tomato, two cucumber chunks, two avocado chunks, and one basil leaf. Combine and finely chop for garnish.
• Stem and seed the jalapeño half and reserve the seeds. Cut the jalapeño into several pieces. Combine one or two pieces of the jalapeño with the remaining tomato, cucumber, avocado, and basil and the watercress or spinach, celery, garlic, red wine vinegar, honey, and ice cubes in a blender or the bowl of a food processor; puree until smooth. Add 1/4 cup or more water to thin the mixture, if necessary.
• Taste and season with salt, pepper, and more vinegar, if needed. If you want the soup spicier, add more of the jalapeño, a little at a time, as well as some of the seeds if desired, blending and tasting after each addition. Refrigerate until cold, then pour into a bowl and top with the reserved chopped tomato, cucumber, avocado, and basil and a drizzle of olive oil, and eat.

• To serve, divide between shallow soup bowls, float a few ice cubes in each bowl (see tip, below) and add a scattering of pea shoots and a drizzle of oil before serving.

INTRICATE GREEN GAZPACHO

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add cilantro, parsley and basil and cook until bright green, about 45 seconds. Remove the herbs and place into a bowl of ice water until cold. Drain.
• In a blender, combine the herb mixture, jalapeno and 2 cups ice water and puree until smooth. With the motor running, add the oil. Using a sieve over a medium bowl, strain the herb puree and season with salt and pepper.
• In a large bowl, toss together the scallion, tomatillos, avocado, apple and lemon juice and season with salt and pepper.
• In a small bowl, season the cucumber with salt and pepper. Using your hands, squeeze out the excess liquid from the cucumber. Place 1/4 of the cucumber in the center of each of four soup bowls and surround the cucumber with the tomatillo mixture. Pour 1/4 of the herb puree into each bowl. Garnish each bowl with chopped parsley and serve.

• Roughly chop the cucumbers, bell peppers, tomatoes, and red onions into 1-inch cubes. Put each vegetable separately into a food processor fitted with a steel blade and pulse until it is coarsely chopped. Do not overprocess!
