What is Gazpacho Soup?

Gazpacho soup is a traditional Spanish cold soup typically made from ripe tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, and stale bread. It’s a popular dish on a hot summer day.

What Ingredients are in Peach Gazpacho Soup?

• Stale Bread: Adds body and texture to the fruit gazpacho soup.
• Sherry Vinegar: sweeter and more mild than red wine vinegar, sherry vinegar provides a tangy kick and enhances the flavor of the peaches.
• Water: Helps to blend and smooth the ingredients.
• Peaches: The star of the dish, bringing sweetness and a summery vibe.
• Cucumber: Adds a refreshing crunch and balances the sweetness of the peaches.
• Green Spring Onion: Introduces a mild onion flavor without overpowering the other ingredients.
• Yellow Bell Pepper: Adds color and a slight sweetness.
• Tomato: Contributes a touch of acidity and depth of flavor.
• Garlic Clove: Provides a savory undertone to the chilled gazpacho soup.
• Olive Oil: Enriches the soup, giving it a smooth, luxurious texture.
• Salt: Enhances all the flavors in the cold gazpacho soup.
