Step 1
Rinse all vegetables and cut them into coarse pieces.
Step 2
Put all ingredients in the blender. Blend until you get a homogeneous soup. Do not blend too long, this is to avoid overheating the blender and warming up the gazpacho.
Step 3
Taste, and season with vinegar, chili, pepper, salt and basil.
Step 4
Divide the gazpacho among 4-6 glasses or bowls and serve with a spoonful of Pa’lais Cucumber & Chives
Tip 1
Use black fermented garlic instead of regular garlic. This is gentler on the stomach & breath.
Tip 2
Also delicious with roasted bell pepper from a jar. This gives a more intense flavor & color.
