It was brought to my attention lately that I haven't made gazpacho once this summer. Thanks for the recipe, Bill.
Practice safe lunch. Use a condiment.

Sounds similar to my recipe. One change I notice that I think makes a difference is to use sherry vinegar instead of red wine. It is more mellow.

Marye asked for this so I bumped it up. Enjoy, Bill

(By the way, I like the sherry vinegar too--a quarter cup of sherry, in addition to the vinegar, adds a richness you won't believe!!)

Everything will be all right in the end. So if it is not right, then it's not yet the end.

I am sooooooo making this soon. I picked up some Gazpacho at Wegmans today and while I was looking at the price I thought, Hm, I have THAT recipe, why not?
So Bill, I'll sub the sherry vinegar for the red wine. Any other suggestions?

After changing to sherry vinegar I never changed it again. That is what the Spaniards use anyway. I'm making this this 4th. Enjoy and Happy 4th!
