Notes
Recipe tips:
- This is a very easy recipe to make and to modify. Don't have red onions? Use sweet onions (or yellow onion. or any onion!). Don't care for green pepper? Use orange.
- Traditional Spanish Gazpacho soup is uncooked and pureed before serving. Feel free to serve this as chunky Gazpacho like I do or puree yours in a food processor or blender. Heat it or serve cooled. When I say this recipe is easy, I meant it.
- This recipe is best served the next day, after allowing the flavors to meld for 12-24 hours.
- The fresh basil, chives, and cumin are delicious in this recipe but if you don't have them, dry spices are just fine.
