COOKING
Heirloom gazpacho with IMPORTED COLD PRESSED EXTRA VIRGIN spanish olive oil
Sometimes nothing improves upon an original. This gazpacho is exactly what you crave on a warm Palm Springs afternoon or evening. Full of rich, aromatic olive oil and sweetened with local heirloom tomatoes, this is the taste of summer in a bowl.
The trick to making this is using the BEST quality ingredients….and not to many of them. Remember not to overseas or fuss to much. This should taste of tomatoes and olive oil and not much else. It’s the simplicity that is key.
We served this cold soup for the Park South VIP Modernism tour in 2022. Trays of clear shot glasses circulated the pool, garnished with golden droplets of oil and a fresh cucumber ‘string stick” to garnish. The subtle flavors and luxurious flavors set the tone for an incredible evening.
For those of you that are afraid of your kitchen, try this soup. It is so easy to put together and one that everyone is sure to love. Also, it’s a great vegan or vegetarian option if your looking for something delicious and satisfying.
Looking forward to your adventures with this one. Feel free to tag #MrCallDesigns on Instagram if you decide to make it!
RECIPE
Mr Call's Heirloom Gazpacho with Spanish Cold Pressed Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
Ingredients
Instructions
- Combine 2 pounds roughly chopped tomatoes with 1 peeled and roughly cucumber, 1/4 cup olive oil, day-old bread, cored and seeded yellow bell pepper, Spanish Sherry Vinegar, water and garlic in a food processor or blender; process until chunky-smooth.

Notes
Design Notes: If the color is looking a bit bleak, add a squirt of San Marzano tomato paste to the blender and give it a whisk. Should give it that punch! Remember, the best Olive Oil for this is cold pressed extra-virgin imported from Spain. My personal favorite is from Castillo De Canena. It's grassy and peppery and a luxurious golden color. The Sherry Vinegar I love to use is from Columella and has 30 years of age on it. It's sweet and thick and velvety to the palate. To serve this cold soup as a passed appetizer, use small five ounce clear cups. They just look like jewels on a tray and make life so much easier. All products available below via affiliate link:
