Notes
- Selecting Tomatoes: The taste of your gazpacho heavily depends on the quality of tomatoes. Use ripe, juicy tomatoes for the best flavor.
- Chilling Time: While a minimum of 30 minutes chilling is necessary, leaving the gazpacho in the fridge for a few hours or overnight allows the flavors to meld together beautifully.
- Serving Options: Gazpacho is versatile - serve it as an appetizer, a palate cleanser between meals, or even as a light lunch.
- Vegan Friendly: This recipe is naturally vegan and gluten-free, making it a perfect dish for various dietary preferences.
- Adjustments: Feel free to adjust the quantities of the vegetables, oil, and vinegar to suit your taste. Some like their gazpacho more tomato-heavy, while others prefer a balanced flavor.
