Andalusian Watermelon Gazpacho

June 23, 2015 by caroline Leave a Comment

Now that we are into the summer months, we thought it is time to share a summer soup with you. Andalusian Watermelon Gazpacho. Now, traditionally, Gazpacho is a soup made of raw vegetables and served cold. It is usually made with a tomato base, and originates in the southern Spanish region of Andalusia.

Today, however we are sharing an alternative : the Andalusian Watermelon Gazpacho recipe, which is equally refreshing. Because of the watermelon in it, it’s just a a lot lighter. The twist with this recipe is the main ingredient. As the title suggests here, it is watermelon that is still blended with the other raw vegetables. It is perfect served as a light lunch or for a picnic on a hot summer’s day. To taste this soup at its best, remember to chill before serving!
