Gazpacho

Method:

6 large tomatoes, roughly chopped

1 cucumber, peeled, seeded and chopped

1/2 bell pepper, seeded and chopped

1/2 jalapeno, seeded, deveined and finely chopped (optional, of course)

2 cloves garlic, grated

1.5 tbl. sherry vinegar

1 tbl. red wine vinegar

2 tbl. extra-virgin olive oil

coarse salt

freshly ground black pepper

pesto, for garnish (recipe here)

In a food processor, puree the tomato. Add the cucumber, bell pepper, jalapeno, garlic, vinegars, and oil and season aggressively with coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper. Pulse just shy of smooth.

Allow the soup to chill in the refrigerator for an hour or more. Taste and adjust seasonings. Pass the pesto at the table.
