Gazpacho
Gazpacho is a soup made of raw vegetables and served cold, originating in the southern Spanish region of Andalusia. The soup is usually made with a tomato base, but other variations include watermelon, melon, cucumber or bread.
The dish is popular in Spain and Portugal, as well as in Latin American countries such as Mexico, Peru, Ecuador, Bolivia, Chile and Argentina. Gazpacho has a long history, with its roots dating back to the Moorish occupation of Spain.
The word "gazpacho" comes from the Arabic word for "soaked bread", which was used as a thickener for the soup. The first recorded recipe for gazpacho dates back to the 15th century, in a cookbook called Libre del Coch by Ruperto de Nola.
Advice
To make a delicious gazpacho, start by selecting the freshest vegetables you can find. To maximize the flavor, use ripe tomatoes, bell peppers, cucumbers, and onion. Once you have your vegetables, combine them in a food processor or blender and puree until smooth. To give your gazpacho the perfect balance of flavor and texture, add a hint of garlic, a splash of sherry vinegar, and a touch of olive oil. Lastly, let your gazpacho chill in the refrigerator for several hours before serving so that the flavors have time to meld. Enjoy!
