Directions

Prepare the Gazpacho

  1. Using the chopping blade (“S” blade) of a food processor or a powerful blender, pulse cucumbers, watermelon and tomatoes. Be sure to add any juice from the watermelon and tomatoes to the puree.

  2. You’ll need to blend in batches, so have a large bowl ready to pour puree into. Stir with a large spoon to combine.

  3. Pulse onion and garlic. Add cumin and sriracha.

  4. Set aside a bit of chopped herbs to use as topping when you serve. Add cilantro, basil and mint to processor and blend with pureed vegetables.

  5. Add vinegar and stream olive oil slowly while processor is whirring. Add salt.

Tips:

 

-Adjust seasoning as you like but give the gazpacho a day in the refrigerator before adding more vinegar, salt or spice. The flavors will develop over time so prepare this at least one day in advance.

-Topping suggestions: sour cream (vegan or dairy), a drizzle of very good olive oil, chopped herbs, cubed watermelon or avocado.

Notes:

Use a large food processor or process in batches to make the full amount of this recipe.

Turned brown after an hour. Anything I can change?

It may be the cilantro, mint, and basil that made it brown. If you watch the video, the soup is not a super vibrant red. It also depends on how ripe and red your tomatoes and watermelon are.
