Traditional Gazpacho
Serves 6
What You’ll Need:
Measuring Cups & Spoons
A Sharp Kitchen Knife
Food Processor
Spatula
Large Bowl
Chilled Soup Bowls
Ingredients:
1 Cup Onions, Roughly Chopped
1 Cup Mixed Red & Yellow Peppers, Roughly Chopped
1 (8-Inch) English Cucumber, Roughly Chopped
3 Cups Tomato, Roughly Chopped
1 1/4 Cups Fresh Orange Juice
2 Tablespoons Lemon Juice
1 Teaspoon Black Cherry Balsamic
1/2 Teaspoon Minced Garlic (or to personal taste)
1/2 Tsp Sea Salt
Shakes of Hot Sauce
1/4 Cup Fresh Chopped Herbs Of Your Choice
2 Tablespoons Olive Oil, Split (Optional, as Garnish)
How To Put It Together:
1) Add onions, mixed peppers and English cucumber to the food processor; ‘pulse’ 3 or 4 times to get the chopping process started. Using a spatula, scrape down the sides of the processor, turning mixture over in the processor to insure even chopping. Add the chopped tomatoes; ‘pulse’ to mix them in a bit.
2) Add the rest of the ingredients: the fresh orange juice, lemon juice, black cherry balsamic, minced garlic, sea salt, pepper and hot sauce. Turn the food processor on for about 30 seconds or so or until you have a ‘soupy’ consistency with even small chunks of yummy veggies throughout.
3) Transfer the soup to a large bowl; cover it with plastic wrap. Place the bowl in the refrigerator for about 4 hours to cool.
4) Serve the Gazpacho in chilled bowls; garnish with fresh chopped herbs of your choice.
5) Serve and enjoy!
Nina’s Tasty Tip:
For the best flavor allow soup to cool overnight.
