BEST GAZPACHO
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.

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.

THE BEST GAZPACHO
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.

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.
PENNY'S BEST EVER GAZPACHO
This is the absolute BEST gazpacho I have ever had. The vodka just adds a little kick to the soup, which makes it different than any of the other recipes I have seen out there for the soup.

- Coarsely chop 1 of the cucumbers, 1/2 of the onion, and 1/2 of the green and red bell peppers. Add the chopped vegetables to the processor (if using a blender, add 1/2 cup of the tomato or vegetable juice as well). Process until liquefied; strain into the large bowl, pressing down with the back of a spoon to extract all liquid.
- Add to the bowl the remaining juice, olive oil, red wine vinegar, vodka or vermouth if using, lime juice, Worcestershire, Tabasco, cayenne pepper, celery salt and pepper. Stir well. Cover and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.
- Finely dice the Roma tomatoes, remaining onion, peppers and cucumber. Add the finly diced celery. Reserve, refrigerated in small mixing bowl.
- To serve, ladle soup into chilled individual bowls. Sprinkle with the chopped vegetables and croutons, if using.

Steps:
- Roughly chop the cucumbers, bell peppers, tomatoes, and red onions into 1-inch cubes. Put each vegetable separately into a food processor fitted with a steel blade and pulse until it is coarsely chopped. Do not overprocess!
- After each vegetable is processed, combine them in a large bowl and add the garlic, tomato juice, vinegar, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Mix well and chill before serving. The longer gazpacho sits, the more the flavors develop.
BEST-EVER GAZPACHO
In Spain, gazpacho is often served as a smooth and silky pureed soup. This recipe is chunky/smooth, but you can puree the vegetables in a food processor a little longer until very smooth.

This recipe produces quite a large amount, but do not worry--this gazpacho is so delicious that it will soon be gone. One of my favorites for summer parties. Serve with fresh croutons or bread.

Steps:
- Prepare a bowl with ice water.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Cut crosses into the bottom of the tomatoes with a sharp knife, and blanch tomatoes in the boiling water for 1 to 2 minutes until the skin begins to come off. Remove tomatoes with a slotted spoon and immediately immerse in the ice water.
- Remove skin from the tomatoes and cut out the seeds over a bowl (so that no juice is lost); discard the seeds.
- If the cucumber is organic, leave the peel on; otherwise peel it. Remove seeds of cucumber and roughly chop.
- Combine tomatoes, cucumber, onion, garlic, and red wine vinegar in a food processor or blender; blend until gazpacho has desired consistency, either coarsely chopped or finely pureed. Slowly add olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Puree again briefly.
- Refrigerate gazpacho until cold, at least 1 hour. Remove from the fridge at least 30 minutes before serving.
