olkabРецепт гаспаччо:
Spanish Gazpacho
fist-sized piece old dry French-style bread
3-4 cloves garlic
1 medium green pepper
1 1/2 pounds very ripe tomatoes, scalded, peeled and cored
1 medium cucumber, peeled
1 tbsp good olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon sugar
vinegar to taste
ground cumin
pinch hot paprika (optional)
If tomatoes are not excellent add a little tomato paste. Soak bread in water until soft. Blend soaked bread with all the other ingredients except the olive oil to a smooth paste adding cold water if necessary. Add olive oil in a steady stream while continuing to blend...some people use a great deal of oil, others very little.
Chill thoroughly...at least a several hours. At this point the gazpacho can be kept for days in the refrigerator.
Before serving taste for salt and vinegar and add cold water if mixture is thicker than a cream soup. (If too thin add a little more soaked bread.) To be really authentic pass small dishes of diced cucumber, green pepper and croutons to garnish.
