Step 3 - ⌛ 2 min.

...and blend until the mixture is smooth.

Remarks

Feel free to use stale bread—some people even say it tastes better than fresh bread.

If you like the flavor, you can also add a bell pepper to the recipe.

The texture of the gazpacho after blending in step 8 can vary greatly depending on your vegetables, so feel free to thin it out with a little very cold water if needed.

Keeping: Several days in a sealed container.
