It seems that we’ve all heard of Gazpacho, but we don’t know much about it or we didn’t try it. I had it in a restaurant many years ago, but I really did it while I was on the Natural Food Chef program in NTI. It is incredibly simple and so delicious. Gazpacho is a cold soup and its origin comes from Spain. THE initial soup It was made with mixed old bread, olive oil and garlic, with some liquid such as water or vinegar that was hit together in a mortar with different vegetables and almonds available. Over time, the dish has become popular and now there are so many flavor combinations as tomato, watermelonBeets, cucumber and tomatillo, all the best summer flavors!
Because we love it
Not only this dish is incredibly versatile, it is the perfect appetizer or side to make your next summer gathering. It’s easy to carry and you don’t have to use the stove at all! I think we underestimate the power of homemade foods and the simple act of sharing with others. I really don’t need much to lift a meal. All you need is a table (that is, a tablecloth if you have one, wax wax, if you like mood lighting, napkins, glasses and dishes), some nice music and good company, but it doesn’t have to be fancy! This dish is fun because you can serve Gazpacho in glasses or cups. Whatever you prefer. If you host or go to a concentration, this can be done in front of time and stored in the refrigerator for service.
Gazpacho is also a great way to use your summer vegetables. There are so many different types of Gazpacho recipes including Watermelon; Peach tomato gazpacho; Ajo blanco gazpacho. I got all the products for this recipe from the Buying farmers So it was fun to support locally and combine all season flavors together. You can garnish this dish with almost every veggie. I used cucumbers with cubes, cherry tomatoes, small and olive oil. I could add the Greek yogurt to it also to add even more tang. The choices are really endless when it comes to this dish and I’m excited to continue to make different repetitions this summer!
