Notes
- For a smoother soup, you can strain it through a fine-mesh sieve after blending.
- Gazpacho can be made a day in advance; the flavors will meld and deepen overnight.
- Adjust the amount of vinegar and salt to your preference.
- This soup is a great way to use up ripe summer produce.
- Consider this a healthy option similar to what you might find with some meal planning services.
