Our Favorite Gazpacho
With summer time coming up, I began thinking of my favorite summer recipes. At the top of the list is this gazpacho recipe. Gazpacho is a cold soup, full of vegetable's, with Hispanic origins; it is sometimes called "salad-soup." There are many kinds of gazpacho. This one is a chunky tomato-based one. It does have "heat" but you can control the amount to suit yourself -- or leave it out entirely. I like to substitute a can of Snap-E-Tom (or Spicy V-8) for an equal amount of tomato juice; that provides enough heat for us. I have also make this into a salad using Knox gelatin. Soften the gelatin as directed, then dissolve it in the required amount of tomato juice (according to package directions). Then add the remaining ingredients. The recipe for this gazpacho is very old; it came from Farm Journal. -- posted by Lorraine of AZ
