CUCUMBER-AVOCADO GAZPACHO



Cucumber-Avocado Gazpacho image

I love this recipe when I'd like a cold soup but need a break from classic Spanish tomato-based gazpacho. Avocado is a nontraditional ingredient for gazpacho, but it makes a creamy and refreshing base when blended with almonds and cooling cucumber. I add lots of fresh herbs to brighten everything up. Give it a try and save those tomatoes for sauce!

Tips:

  • Choose ripe avocados: For the creamiest and most flavorful gazpacho, use ripe avocados. Ripe avocados will be dark green or nearly black in color, and they will yield to gentle pressure when squeezed.
  • Use fresh corn: Fresh corn adds a sweet and juicy flavor to the gazpacho. If you can't find fresh corn, you can use frozen corn that has been thawed.
  • Chill the gazpacho before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld and the soup to become nice and cold. You can chill the gazpacho for at least 2 hours, or overnight.
  • Garnish the gazpacho with your favorite toppings: Some good options include chopped cilantro or parsley, diced avocado, crumbled cotija cheese, or a drizzle of olive oil.

Conclusion:

Avocado corn gazpacho is a refreshing, flavorful, and healthy soup that is perfect for a summer meal. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you are looking for a light and healthy lunch or a refreshing dinner, avocado corn gazpacho is a great option. So next time you have an abundance of avocados and corn, be sure to give this recipe a try!
