Glorious Green Gazpacho
On a hot summer’s day what could be more refreshing than a vibrant spoonful of this chilled cucumber & almond soup.
I’ll wager you the answer to that would be nothing!
Now I may not be classical in my interpretation of this classic fare, the original should be heady with tomatoes & without almonds, & then ajo blanco should be a pure white which evidently this isn’t! I would hope however that my version stills sings in some praises, & that you all enjoy it as much as I do.
