  • To make the avocado mash, use ripe avocados that are soft to the touch. Mash the avocados with a fork or a potato masher until they are smooth and creamy.
  • To add a smoky flavor to the gazpacho, use smoked seafood such as smoked salmon, trout, or mackerel. You can also use smoked paprika or liquid smoke to achieve a smoky flavor.
  • Serve the gazpacho chilled. You can garnish it with a dollop of avocado mash, a sprinkle of smoked paprika, and a drizzle of olive oil.
