Light gazpacho recipe

Refresh yourself from the start of your meal with Spain's most internationally renowned cold soup: gazpacho! The key ingredients are ripe tomatoes and good olive oil to create this fresh and flavorful starter. Now that summer is here, we've opted for a lighter version by omitting the bread.

  • 500g of tomatoes (about 5)
  • 1/2 cucumber
  • 1/2 pepper
  • 1/2 clove of garlic

  1. Wash and halve the tomatoes. Peel the cucumber and cut it into chunks. Remove the seeds from the bell pepper. Put everything in a blender. Blend well.

  3. Chop some cucumber and bell pepper into small pieces. Serve this tomato soup chilled and garnish with the chopped vegetables.
