How to make strawberry gazpacho step by step
- Wash and cut the strawberries. Wash them very carefully, drain them and cut off the entire part of the peduncle. Cut them in half and arrange them in a large bowl.
- Prepare the rest of the vegetables. Peel the tomatoes, cut them into quarters and remove the seeds. Peel the chives and garlic and wash them together with the pepper. Chop them finely and add them to the bowl where you have put the strawberries, along with 100 ml of olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper, according to the desired taste.
- Make the gazpacho. With the help of a mixer, blend all the ingredients until you get a fine cream. And once you have it, add a splash of wine vinegar to taste, mix, and reserve in the fridge until serving time.
- Bind the basil oil. Beat with a mixer 100 ml of oil together with the basil leaves until you get a consistent mixture.
- Plate and serve. Grab some glasses, bowls or glasses and spread the very cold gazpacho with a drizzle of basil oil and some Parmesan cheese flakes on top, and decorate with some basil leaves.
