Roasted Gazpacho Recipes

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.

Steps:

• For the veggies: Heat the grill to 400 degrees F.
• Brush oil on the scallions, tomatillos and zucchini, then sprinkle them with salt and place over the direct heat of the grill. Cook, rotating or flipping occasionally, until everything chars and the tomatillos soften a bit, about 5 minutes.
• Blend and chill soup: Combine the scallions, tomatillos and zucchini in a blender, along with the yogurt, basil, cucumber, garlic, lemon juice and a nice pinch of salt. Blend until smooth. If the consistency is too thick, add a handful of crushed ice and blend; this should fix it! Taste and season with salt, then taste again. Refrigerate at least four hours or up to overnight.
• Serve. Mix the yogurt and honey in a small bowl. Serve the soup in bowls and drizzle with the yogurt mixture, and a shake or two of the hot sauce.

Steps:

• Process 1/2 cup of tomatoes, along with the water and oil, in a blender or food processor until pureed. Transfer to a medium bowl, along with remaining ingredients. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate until ready to serve. (Can be made several hours before serving.)

Steps:

• In a blender or food processor, combine tomato juice, onion, bell pepper, cucumber, tomatoes, green onions, garlic, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, tarragon, basil, parsley, sugar, salt, and pepper. Blend until well-combined but still slightly chunky. Chill at least 2 hours before serving.

Steps:

• Put the onion, garlic, pepper, tomatoes and bread in a food processor and blend until finely chopped, but not too smooth. Tip into a large bowl with the passata, stock, oil, vinegar, Tabasco or harissa, sugar and seasoning. Mix well, cover the bowl with cling film or foil and put in the fridge for at least 2 hrs or overnight.
• To serve, pour into small bowls or glasses, drizzle over a little olive oil and sprinkle with a few torn basil leaves.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Cut the tomatoes, zucchini, eggplant, and onions into large chunks as directed, making all the chunks approximately the same size. Toss the vegetable chunks and garlic cloves in a large bowl with the olive oil.
• Spread vegetables in a single layer in a roasting pan. Roast in the preheated oven 25 minutes or till tender, turning once.
• Puree the vegetables with the 4 cups broth and place in a large bowl. Add sherry vinegar and black pepper to taste.
• Cut crusts off bread slices and discard or reserve for another use. Tear the bread slices into pieces and stir into the soup mixture.
• Refrigerate several hours. Serve garnished with fresh chopped cilantro.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F Combine the tomatoes, eggplant, zucchini, onions, garlic, and olive oil in a large roasting pan and roast, stirring occasionally, until the eggplant is tender, about 30 minutes.
• Put the mixture into a bowl and add the vinegar, salt, pepper, water, and bread. Refrigerate and allow to cool for several hours or overnight.
• Pour the mixture into a food processor or blender. You can put it through a food mill or strainer to remove any remaining solids.
• Check seasoning, garnish and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F. Place tomatoes on large rimmed baking sheet. Cut 4 peppers into 1-inch pieces; place on another rimmed baking sheet. Cut 3 onions into 1-inch pieces; add to peppers. Drizzle 1/2 cup oil over vegetables, tossing to coat. Sprinkle with salt. Roast vegetables until soft and slightly charred, about 50 minutes, switching positions of pans after 25 minutes. Puree half of vegetables with pan juices in processor until smooth. Add 1 cup water; process until very smooth. Transfer mixture to large bowl. Repeat with remaining vegetables and 1 cup water. Cover gazpacho; chill overnight.
• Mix remaining 1 cup water, vinegar, and hot pepper sauce into gazpacho. Season to taste with salt.
• Finely dice remaining bell pepper and onion; mix with cucumber. Pour gazpacho into bowls; top with diced vegetables and a drizzle of oil.
