We will prepare gazpacho based on ingredients such as: tomatoes, bell peppers, cucumber.
This option is closer to the classic version, but in fact the ingredients in this dish may vary according to your taste preferences (watermelon gazpacho is also prepared).
No matter what kind of gazpacho you prefer, making it is as easy as shelling pears: the ingredients are mixed until smooth and then left to cool completely. The result is a very refreshing lunch, snack or even a drink to cool off on the hottest day.
