Gazpacho is a cold summer soup that originated in Spain. It has many different variations both in terms of ingredients and fabrication methods. Basic ingredients will always include tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, onions, garlic, and some kind of acid, (lemon juice, lime juice, vinegar, or some combination thereof). From there, other additives include olive oil, tomato juice, tomatillos, croutons, and various types of herbs.

Ingredients

6 medium tomatoes peeled
1 medium spanish onion or large
1 each cucumber peeled and seeded
1 each poblano peppers seeds and stem removed
2 each jalapeno peppers optional
2 cloves garlic
1 x cilantro stems included, chopped
2 each limes juice
1 x salt and black pepper to taste

Directions

Blanch the tomatoes in boiling water for 30 seconds and then immerse in ice water.

Remove the skins.

Roughly chop the tomatoes, onion, cucumber, peppers, and garlic and puree them in a food processor until the desired consistency is achieved.

You are not seeking to pulverize the vegetables.

I aim for a mildly coarse texture.

Chop the cilantro separately, (it tastes better chopped by hand), then add it, the lime juice and salt and pepper to the soup.

Chill the soup and serve.

If you can chill it overnight so much the better since the flavors will deepen and improve with time.
