Gordon Ramsay Gazpacho Recipe

Print Recipe

Gordon Ramsay’s Gazpacho is a traditional Spanish cold soup, blended to a smooth, velvety consistency. Unlike cooked tomato soups, gazpacho is raw, allowing the fresh ingredients to shine. The balance of acidity from vinegar, sweetness from ripe tomatoes, and a hint of spice from garlic creates a refreshing and flavorful dish.
