Gazpacho

食材

4 large ripe tomatoes (beefsteak perhaps)

2 1/2 cucumbers

1 large green pepper (could be red if you prefer red to green taste)

10-12 scallions

2 cloves garlic

Salt

1/4 cup red wine vinegar

1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil

3 cups tomato juice

1-1 1/2 cups water (you can also use beef broth, but I don't think I'd try chicken broth)

Hot pepper sauce

Worcestershire sauce

Freshly ground pepper

步驟

Peel, seed, and chop in 1/4 inch dice the tomatoes and 2 of the cucumbers. Wash and trim pepper and scallions and chop into 1/4 inch dice. In a mortar, mash garlic with 1 teaspoon salt. Bet in the vinegar and oil. Combine this dressing with the chopped vegetables and stir in the tomato juice. Add water or broth to the consistence you prefer. Season with a dash of hot pepper sauce, sauce, salt, and pepper. Worcestershire Chill. Slice 1/2 cucumber paper-thin. Serve gazpacho in chilled bowls topped with cucumber slices. Encore, bon appetit!
