Making the Tomato Peach Gazpacho
(scroll down to the bottom of post for the full recipe)
Ingredients You Will Need
- Heirloom tomatoes (or regular tomatoes)
- Peaches
- Cucumber
- Extra-virgin olive oil
- White balsamic vinegar (or regular)
- Garlic
- Honey
- Croutons
- Basil
How to Prep Fruit
Prep the peaches by peeling, pitting, and chopping into chunks – no need to be precise with sizing since it’s getting blended up anyways.
Prep the tomatoes by coring, deseeding, and chopping tomatoes into chunks. Do your best to remove all of the seeds, but it definitely doesn’t need to be perfect!
For best results, we recommend using ripe tomatoes and peaches in this gazpacho for a sweet, mellow flavor.
Tips for Perfect Gazpacho
- Use a high-speed blender – for the smoothest gazpacho, we recommend using a good-quality blender to effectively break down the fruit into a perfectly smooth soup. If you don’t have a blender, use an immersion blender (you may have to blend a little longer)
- Don’t skimp on the olive oil – 1/4 cup may seem like a lot of olive oil, but this is where the richness component of the gazpacho comes in. Don’t be tempted to add less!
- Chill soup 2 hours – allowing the soup to chill 2 hours in the fridge gives it time to develop a lot of flavors.
How to Serve with Gazpacho
We recommend serving gazpacho alongside any sandwich or panini (bonus points if you use it for dipping!)
Ladle the chilled gazpacho into soup cups and top with croutons, a little fresh basil, a few drizzles of olive oil, and a few grinds of black pepper.
Recipe Variations
Try these suggestions for a little bit of a twist on this recipe!
- Use a different stone fruit – nectarines, apricots, or plums would work great in place of the peaches.
- Try different herbs – minced fresh chives, parsley, or oregano are great replacements for the basil.
- Swap out the tomatoes – we love heirlooms in this recipe, but feel free to use regular tomatoes in their place.
Pro gazpacho tip: don’t skimp on the croutons and fresh basil when you enjoy this gazpacho! The little crunch and fresh herby flavor goes perfectly with the sweet, velvety texture of the soup.
Another pro tip is always make sure you have a jar of this summer goodness on hand. Trust me!
