AUTHENTIC GAZPACHO RECIPE



Authentic Gazpacho Recipe image

The best Spanish gazpacho recipe I've ever tried. This authentic gazpacho is a blend of different vegetables with olive oil, vinegar, and salt.

Provided by Lauren Aloise

Categories     Tapa

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 9

6-7 medium tomatoes
1 green Italian pepper (the long type, not a bell pepper)
1 cucumber
½ of a small white onion
1 clove of garlic (not too big)
1/4 cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil ((60 ml) again, quality is important)
A splash of Sherry vinegar (Vinagre de Jerez, although red or white wine vinegar can be substituted)
A pinch (or two of salt)
Optional toppings (For ex: diced green apple, diced onion, diced pepper, croutons, & hard-boiled eggs)

Steps:

  • Wash and dry all of the vegetables very well-if you prefer to peel the tomatoes you can, although I usually leave the skin on.
  • Cut the tomatoes into 4 slices (leaving the core behind) and put into your blender.
  • Halve, core, and de-seed the pepper. Cut it into a few slices and add to the blender.
  • Peel the garlic and slice it in half. Remove the core (which often results in bitterness when not cooked).
  • Cut the onion into a few slices and add it to the blender too.
  • Peel the cucumber and cut it in half. Add half to the blender and save the other half for a topping.
  • Blend the vegetables at a high speed until it is completely pureed.
  • Add the salt and vinegar and, while blending on a slow speed, slowly add the olive oil.
  • Taste and adjust salt and vinegar. If the texture is too thick for your liking add some cold water.
  • Refrigerate and serve VERY cold! Add as many (or as few) toppings as you like.

Time 2h45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/2 pounds vine-ripened tomatoes, peeled, seeded and chopped
Tomato juice
1 cup cucumber, peeled, seeded and chopped
1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper
1/2 cup chopped red onion
1 small jalapeno, seeded and minced
1 medium garlic clove, minced
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Fill a 6-quart pot halfway full of water, set over high heat and bring to a boil.

Add the cucumber, bell pepper, red onion, jalapeno, garlic clove, olive oil, lime juice, balsamic vinegar, Worcestershire, cumin, salt and pepper and stir to combine. Transfer 1 1/2 cups of the mixture to a blender and puree for 15 to 20 seconds on high speed. Return the pureed mixture to the bowl and stir to combine. Cover and chill for 2 hours and up to overnight. Serve with chiffonade of basil.

THE BEST GAZPACHO



The Best Gazpacho image

Ripe tomatoes, crisp cucumber and red bell peppers come together to make a delightfully refreshing version of classic gazpacho. We added a touch of sherry vinegar for acidity, which plays nicely with sweet, ripe tomatoes. Hearty white bread adds body and creates the perfect creamy texture. Top with diced cucumber and a drizzle of olive oil for a light soup you'll want to make all summer long.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     appetizer

Time 2h25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 slices hearty white bread, crusts removed, diced (about 1 cup diced)
2 1/2 pounds vine-ripened tomatoes, cored and roughly chopped
1 English cucumber, 1/2 roughly chopped and 1/2 finely diced
1 red bell pepper, stemmed, seeded and roughly chopped
1 clove garlic, smashed
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for serving
2 to 3 tablespoons sherry vinegar
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Place the bread cubes in a small bowl and add enough water to cover. Let soak until the bread is completely saturated, about 2 minutes. Drain and squeeze dry.
  • Combine the bread, tomatoes, roughly chopped cucumber, bell pepper, garlic, 1/3 cup olive oil, 2 tablespoons vinegar, coriander, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a blender. (Work in two batches if necessary.) Blend on high speed until creamy and very smooth, about 2 minutes. Strain through a fine-mesh strainer into a large bowl or 8-cup liquid measuring cup. Cover and refrigerate until very cold, at least 2 hours and up to overnight.
  • Season to taste with more salt and pepper and add up to 1 more tablespoon vinegar. Ladle into serving bowls, top with the finely diced cucumber and drizzle with more olive oil. Serve chilled.

BEST GAZPACHO



Best Gazpacho image

More of a drink than a soup, served in frosted glasses or chilled tumblers, gazpacho is perfect when it is too hot to eat but you need cold, salt and lunch all at the same time. Gazpacho is everywhere in Seville, Spain, where this recipe comes from, but it's not the watered-down salsa or grainy vegetable purée often served in the United States. This version has no bread and is a creamy orange-pink rather than a lipstick red. That is because a large quantity of olive oil is required for making delicious gazpacho, rather than take-it-or-leave it gazpacho. The emulsion of red tomato juice, palest green cucumber juice and golden olive oil produces the right color and a smooth, almost fluffy texture.

Categories     dinner, easy, lunch, quick, soups and stews, appetizer

Time 20m

Yield 8 to 12 servings, about 1 quart

Number Of Ingredients 8

About 2 pounds ripe red tomatoes, cored and roughly cut into chunks
1 Italian frying (cubanelle) pepper or another long, light green pepper, such as Anaheim, cored, seeded and roughly cut into chunks
1 cucumber, about 8 inches long, peeled and roughly cut into chunks
1 small mild onion (white or red), peeled and roughly cut into chunks
1 clove garlic
2 teaspoons sherry vinegar, more to taste
Salt
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil, more to taste, plus more for drizzling

Steps:

  • Combine tomatoes, pepper, cucumber, onion and garlic in a blender or, if using a hand blender, in a deep bowl. (If necessary, work in batches.) Blend at high speed until very smooth, at least 2 minutes, pausing occasionally to scrape down the sides with a rubber spatula.
  • With the motor running, add the vinegar and 2 teaspoons salt. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil. The mixture will turn bright orange or dark pink and become smooth and emulsified, like a salad dressing. If it still seems watery, drizzle in more olive oil until texture is creamy.
  • Strain the mixture through a strainer or a food mill, pushing all the liquid through with a spatula or the back of a ladle. Discard the solids. Transfer to a large pitcher (preferably glass) and chill until very cold, at least 6 hours or overnight.
  • Before serving, adjust the seasonings with salt and vinegar. If soup is very thick, stir in a few tablespoons ice water. Serve in glasses, over ice if desired, or in a bowl. A few drops of olive oil on top are a nice touch.

GAZPACHO



Gazpacho image

All gazpacho is good, but starting with the sweetest, most flavorful tomatoes you can find will make this one great. As you blend and strain the soup, taste it constantly, adjusting the salt and vinegar incrementally. Inch by inch, push the flavors to the edge: the soup should taste seasoned but not salty, tangy but not sour. While it chills, make the croutons and basil oil, which will give the smooth soup delightful contrasts in both texture and color.

Categories     soups and stews

Time 45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 small red onion
3 Persian cucumbers, peeled
1 large red bell pepper, seeded, ribs removed
1/2 jalapeño pepper, seeded, ribs removed
2 1/2 pounds Sungold (or other orange) cherry tomatoes (about 3 to 4 pint baskets or 8 1/2 cups), stemmed
1 clove garlic
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher or fine sea salt
1-2 teaspoons sherry vinegar or red-wine vinegar
16 basil leaves
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
5 ounces Sweet 100 (or other red) cherry tomatoes (about 1/3 pint basket or 1 cup), stemmed and halved
Kosher or sea salt
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
4 slices white bread (crusts removed), diced into 1/2-inch cubes
Kosher or sea salt

Steps:

  • Cut half the onion, 2 of the cucumbers, 3/4 of the bell pepper and the jalapeño into 1-inch pieces. Place in the bowl of a food processor or blender jar. Add Sungold tomatoes, garlic, olive oil and 2 teaspoons kosher salt or 1 teaspoon fine sea salt. Blend at high speed until completely smooth. (If necessary, blend in batches, then stir together.)
  • Place a fine-mesh sieve over a large bowl, and strain soup, using a spatula to help press the liquid through; discard the solids.
  • Finely dice remaining onion, cucumber and pepper, and add to soup; stir in vinegar. If desired, add water 1 tablespoon at a time to thin out the soup. Taste, and adjust salt and vinegar as needed. Cover, and chill soup for 45 minutes. (Chill 6 soup bowls now too.)
  • Make the basil oil: Finely chop the basil leaves. Place in a small bowl, and cover with the olive oil. Add the halved cherry tomatoes and a generous pinch of salt. Toss to combine, then taste and adjust salt. Set aside.
  • Make the croutons: Line a plate with paper towels. Set a 10-inch cast-iron pan over medium heat. When the pan is hot, add the olive oil and 1 bread cube. When the cube starts to sizzle, add the remaining cubes, and stir gently to coat evenly in oil. Reduce heat to medium low, and cook for 12 to 15 minutes, stirring regularly, until croutons are golden-brown and crisp. Use a slotted spoon to remove croutons to the plate to drain, and season lightly with salt.
  • To assemble, ladle soup into chilled bowls. Garnish with basil oil and croutons. Serve immediately.

QUICK CLASSIC GAZPACHO



Quick Classic Gazpacho image

For the ultimate gazpacho, you must peel, seed, dice, salt and drain really good, vine-ripened tomatoes. So what if you don't have time to fuss with fresh tomatoes? I've found the canned variety makes a fine substitute. Another advantage: Fresh tomatoes start to deteriorate as soon as the soup is refrigerated, but canned tomatoes are unaffected by the chill.

Provided by Ben S.

Categories     Soups, Stews and Chili Recipes     Soup Recipes     Vegetable Soup Recipes     Gazpacho Recipes

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 (14.5 ounce) cans diced tomatoes (I use Hunt's Petite Diced)
½ cup water
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 seedless cucumber, cut into 1/4-inch dice
1 small yellow bell pepper, seeded and cut into 1/4-inch dice
1 small onion, cut into 1/4-inch dice
2 medium garlic cloves, minced
1 small jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
2 tablespoons sherry vinegar
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, basil or cilantro
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Process 1/2 cup of tomatoes, along with the water and oil, in a blender or food processor until pureed. Transfer to a medium bowl, along with remaining ingredients. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate until ready to serve. (Can be made several hours before serving.)

Tips:

  • Utilize ripe and fresh produce: The quality of your gazpacho depends heavily on the quality of your ingredients. Use the ripest, freshest vegetables you can find for the best flavor.
  • Chill thoroughly: Gazpacho is best served cold, so make sure to chill it thoroughly before serving. You can chill it in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or overnight for a more pronounced flavor.
  • Adjust the consistency: The consistency of gazpacho can be adjusted to your liking. If you prefer a thinner soup, add more liquid. If you prefer a thicker soup, add less liquid or blend the vegetables less.
  • Garnish generously: Gazpacho is a visually appealing dish, so don't be afraid to garnish it generously. Some popular garnishes include chopped cucumber, diced avocado, croutons, and herbs like basil or cilantro.
  • Experiment with different variations: There are many different variations of gazpacho, so feel free to experiment with different ingredients and flavors. Some popular variations include adding fruit, such as watermelon or strawberries, or using different types of vinegar, such as sherry vinegar or balsamic vinegar.

Conclusion:
