WATERMELON GAZPACHO



Watermelon Gazpacho image

Soup is something you can have any time of year, but the same can't be said for good watermelon, asparagus or tomatoes, so make the most of them. Gazpacho-type soups can be made at the last moment; they should feel hearty and thick. If you'd like, you can purée, chill and serve this soup as a beverage. Bear in mind that everything tends to taste less salty when it's cold, so you may actually want to oversalt savory soups. Or just wait until the last minute and salt to taste.
