Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large, ripe tomatoes
- 1 large, peeled and seeded cucumber
- 1 large red bell pepper
- 0.5 medium red onion
- 2 cloves garlic
- 0.25 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup cold water
- 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh basil
Instructions
Begin by washing all the vegetables thoroughly.
Core the tomatoes and cut them into chunks. Add them to a blender.
Peel and chop the cucumber into large pieces, and add to the blender.
Remove the seeds and stem from the red bell pepper, chop it, and add to the blender.
Peel and roughly chop half of the red onion and add it to the blender.
Peel the garlic cloves and add them whole to the blender.
Add the extra virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, sea salt, and black pepper to the blender.
Pour the cold water into the mixture to help it blend smoothly.
Blend on high speed until the mixture becomes a smooth liquid. If the texture is too thick, add more cold water a little at a time until the desired consistency is achieved.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or vinegar as needed.
Transfer the gazpacho to a large bowl or pitcher, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to let the flavors meld and the soup chill thoroughly.
Before serving, stir the gazpacho and pour into bowls. Garnish with freshly chopped basil.
Serve cold and enjoy your refreshing Paleo Classic Gazpacho!
