Cucumber Gazpacho image

This summer-ready gazpacho tastes cucumber-forward with an underlying sweetness from the honeydew and honey, and the sherry vinegar sharpens those flavors. Serve with delicate-tasting seafood such as crab, soft herbs, a yogurt drizzle, or olive oil-toasted bread cubes.

Time 1h20m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 large English cucumbers
3 cups chopped honeydew melon
1 cup cubed crustless day-old white bread
¼ cup olive oil, plus extra for drizzling
1 tablespoon sherry vinegar
2 ¼ teaspoons kosher salt, plus more to taste
¼ cup crumbled feta cheese
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
2 teaspoons honey

Steps:

  • Thinly slice one of the cucumbers to equal 1/3 cup. Transfer cucumber slices to a small bowl; cover and chill until ready to use.
  • Coarsely chop remaining cucumbers and transfer to a blender. Add honeydew, bread cubes, 1/4 cup oil, vinegar, and 2 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt. Process on low speed, gradually increasing speed to high, until cucumber mixture is very smooth and creamy, about 90 seconds.
  • Pour gazpacho into a medium bowl. Cover and chill until cold, about 1 hour.
  • Right before serving, toss together reserved cucumber slices, feta cheese, mint, honey, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl.
  • Stir and ladle gazpacho into 4 shallow bowls. Top evenly with cucumber-feta mixture and drizzle with olive oil.
