2 teaspoons sherry vinegar (you can adjust at the end if you like more)

  • Add the tablespoon of lemon juice

REAL SPANISH GAZPACHO FROM SPAIN



Real Spanish Gazpacho from Spain image

Sorry but not a single gazpacho recipe on zaar is really what in Spain we have as a summer soup. A refreshing and delicious first course so easy to make.If you'd like to try a real Andalusian delicacy, please follow my recipe!

Provided by MumofJuan

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 15m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 lbs ripe juicy tomatoes
1 garlic clove
1/2 an onion, white type not sweet
1 green sweet pepper
1 cucumber, about 6-7 inches long
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1/2 tablespoon salt
1 cup virgin olive oil
1 piece French bread (3-4 inches long piece)

Steps:

  • Rinse well the tomatoes,take off the stems.
  • Peel the garlic clove.
  • Peel the onion, chop in 3-4 pieces.
  • Rinse the pepper, get rid of any single seed, chop coarsely.
  • Peel well the cucumber, no green left.
  • Place the piece of bread in a bowl with water in order to soak it. Once soaked, put all water away, squeeze the soaked bread with your bare hands as much as you can and set aside.
  • In a good blender or food processor (I have a German marvel called Thermomix) put the tomatoes (previously cut in 4-5 pieces each), the garlic, onion, pepper, cucumber, squeezed bread. Add remaining ingredients and crush all up at the highest speed and power your machine can work. No temperature please! Go on until no minimum little piece of anything can be noticed when you try the gazpacho. It must be creamy and with some consistency, not watery like. Pour it in a jar or bowl and let it chill in your fridge. The chilliest the better. Do not freeze! Serve it in bowls as a first course for any meal.
  • Notes:.
  • Always try the cucumber before adding it. If it is sour, your gazpacho will be ruined.
  • For the best results, use Spanish (from Spain, Europe) olive oil. Italian could suit, but believe me ours is much better, though not so well known.
  • Keeps well in fridge for a week, guess it won't last you a day, so good it is!

Featuring grilled then chilled garden vegetables and Arbequina Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Spain. This recipe created by Love and Lemons is in partnership with Olive Oils from Spain.

Provided by Love and Lemons

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 25

Ingredients
1 pound tomatillos (8 medium)
¼ white onion
2 whole unwrapped garlic cloves
¼ to ½ jalapeño pepper
¼ cup Arbequina extra virgin Olive Oil from Spain, more for drizzling
½ English cucumber, chopped
½ cup packed cilantro
2 tablespoons lime juice
½ to 1 teaspoon sea salt
½ teaspoon honey or pure maple syrup
¼ cup plain whole milk Greek yogurt
Yogurt Drizzle
¼ cup plain whole milk Greek yogurt
1 teaspoon lime juice
2 teaspoons water
Pinch of sea salt
Garnishes
Arbequina extra virgin Olive Oil from Spain, for drizzling
Kernels from 1 ear of corn, lightly charred
1 cup finely diced cucumber
½ cup yellow cherry tomatoes, sliced in half
Fresh herbs (mint or cilantro)
Microgreens
1 tablespoon hemp seeds

Steps:

  • Instructions
  • Preheat a grill to medium-high heat. On a plate or small baking sheet, toss the tomatillos, onion, garlic, and jalapeño with drizzles of Olive Oil from Spain and a few pinches of sea salt.
  • Wrap the garlic cloves in a piece of foil and place all the vegetables directly on the grill. Grill 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until the tomatillos are soft, charred, and just starting to burst, and the onion and jalapeño are charred and soft. Remove from the grill and unwrap the garlic. Let cool, then chill completely. (This step can be done in advance.)
  • In a blender, combine the chilled tomatillos, onion, garlic, ¼ of the jalapeño pepper, ¼ cup of Olive Oil from Spain, cucumber, cilantro, lime juice, ½ teaspoon salt, honey, and the yogurt. Blend until smooth. Season with more salt, if desired (I add ½ teaspoon). Taste and add the remaining jalapeño, if desired, for more spice. Chill the soup until ready to serve.
  • Yogurt drizzle: In a small bowl, mix the yogurt, lime juice, water, and a pinch of sea salt.
  • Serve the soup with the yogurt drizzle and any desired garnishes.
