AUTHENTIC GAZPACHO RECIPE

Steps:

• Wash and dry all of the vegetables very well-if you prefer to peel the tomatoes you can, although I usually leave the skin on.
• Cut the tomatoes into 4 slices (leaving the core behind) and put into your blender.
• Halve, core, and de-seed the pepper. Cut it into a few slices and add to the blender.
• Peel the garlic and slice it in half. Remove the core (which often results in bitterness when not cooked).
• Cut the onion into a few slices and add it to the blender too.
• Peel the cucumber and cut it in half. Add half to the blender and save the other half for a topping.
• Blend the vegetables at a high speed until it is completely pureed.
• Add the salt and vinegar and, while blending on a slow speed, slowly add the olive oil.
• Taste and adjust salt and vinegar. If the texture is too thick for your liking add some cold water.
• Refrigerate and serve VERY cold! Add as many (or as few) toppings as you like.

YELLOW TOMATO GAZPACHO

Steps:

• In a medium sized bowl, roughly tear up bread and add enough water to cover. Allow bread to soak for 15 minutes.
• After about 15 minutes, squeeze the excess water out of the bread. Add all the chopped vegetables, garlic and olive oil to the bread bowl and toss together to combine, making sure everything is evenly coated with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and let everthing marinate for another 15 minutes.
• In a food processor or blender, blend together the vegetable mixture until pureed and there are no large peices of bread or vegetable. Add a few dashes of redwine vinegar and season with a good amount of salt and pepper. Taste for seasoning and give it one bland pulse.
• For a silky smooth texture, pour the gazpacho soup through a fine mesh strainer pushing down on the pulp to get as much liquid as possible.
• Chill gazpacho for at least 30 minutes before serving and once ready, pour pour in bowls and garnish with an extra drizzle of olive oil, chopped vegetables and fresh oregano.

GRILLED YELLOW GAZPACHO

Steps:

• Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the tomatoes and half of the yellow pepper, turning occasionally, until lightly charred on all sides, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a blender along with the garlic, shallot, vinegar, salt and pepper and half of the cucumber. Puree until very smooth. Slowly add the olive oil with the motor running. Strain through a medium-meshed sieve into a bowl. Cover and chill at least 4 hours and preferably overnight. Finely chop the remaining half yellow pepper and cucumber and keep refrigerated.
• Before serving, season the gazpacho with salt and pepper. Ladle into bowls and top with a little of the diced pepper and cucumber, then drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with basil.
