Number Of Ingredients 12

5 ripe tomatoes, cored, 4 quartered and 1 diced for garnish
5 large radishes, 4 quartered and 1 julienned, for garnish
1 1/4 English cucumbers, peeled, 1 cut into chunks and 1/4 diced for garnish
1 1/2 yellow bell peppers, stemmed and seeded, 1 cut into chunks and 1/2 diced for garnish
1/2 medium fennel bulb, trimmed, cored, and cut into chunks
2 scallions, cut into 1-inch lengths
1/4 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley, plus sprigs for garnish
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/8 teaspoon coarse salt
Cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon red-wine vinegar

Steps:

  • Place 4 tomatoes in a blender, and then add 4 radishes, 1 cucumber, 1 bell pepper, the fennel, scallions, parsley, and lemon juice. Puree until very smooth, about 1 minute.
  • Line a large bowl with 3 layers of cheesecloth. Pour puree into the bowl, gather cheesecloth around puree, and tie into a bundle. Tie ends to a long wooden spoon, and balance spoon on the rim of a deep pot, suspending bundle in the pot. Refrigerate and strain for 2 hours to extract a clear broth.
  • Gently squeeze solids in cheesecloth to extract liquid. (You should have 4 cups liquid.) Discard solids.
  • Season broth with salt and cayenne pepper. Garnish with remaining tomato, radish, cucumber, bell pepper, and parsley. Drizzle with oil and vinegar, and serve cold.

This gazpacho was a bit too thick for my taste. I think it needed more liquid, or maybe some additional vegetables. The flavors were also a bit bland.

This gazpacho was just okay. The flavors were a bit underwhelming and the texture was a bit too watery. I think it needed more salt and pepper, and maybe some additional spices.

Overall, I thought this gazpacho was pretty good. The flavors were nice and the texture was smooth. However, I found it to be a bit too acidic for my taste. Next time, I would use less vinegar.

I've never been a huge fan of gazpacho, but this recipe changed my mind. The light broth is so flavorful and refreshing, and the vegetables are cooked perfectly. I especially loved the addition of the mint, which gave the soup a nice pop of flavor.
