Ingredients
Method
Prepare the Gazpacho Base
- In a blender, combine the chopped tomatoes, peaches, cucumber, red bell pepper, and garlic. This mixture will form the base of your gazpacho.
- Add the red wine vinegar, olive oil, sea salt, and black pepper to the blender. The vinegar adds acidity, balancing the sweetness of the fruit.
- Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth. If you prefer a chunkier texture, pulse the blender a few times instead of blending continuously.
- Taste the gazpacho and adjust the seasoning with more salt or pepper if needed.
- Transfer the gazpacho to a mixing bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. This step is crucial for enhancing the taste.
Prepare the Garnish
- While the gazpacho chills, prepare the garnish by dicing the remaining peach and cucumber. This will add freshness and texture to your dish.
- Chop the fresh basil and set aside. Basil complements the flavors of both tomatoes and peaches beautifully.
Serve the Gazpacho
- Once the gazpacho has chilled, stir it well and taste one last time for seasoning.
- Ladle the gazpacho into bowls and top with the diced peach, cucumber, and chopped basil.
- Drizzle a little extra virgin olive oil over the top for added richness.
- Serve immediately and enjoy the refreshing flavors!

Notes
For best results, use ripe, in-season tomatoes and peaches. You can also add a splash of hot sauce for a spicy kick if desired.
