Best Cucumber Gazpacho With Mint Paste Recipes

CUCUMBER MINT GAZPACHO

Steps:

• In a high-powered blender, add cucumbers, mint, goat cheese, lemon juice, and garlic cloves. Add about half of the olive oil to start, and once blended determine how much more you want to add. Add salt to taste.
• Blend on high until combined to desired consistency - some pebble sized bits are ok! Add additional olive oil to thin out as needed, and adjust salt to taste.
• Chill in fridge for at least 15 minutes; serve chilled with additional mint, cucumber, and goat cheese garnish as desired.

GREEN CUCUMBER & MINT GAZPACHO

Steps:

• In a food processor or blender, blitz all the ingredients, reserving half the mint and yogurt, until smooth. Add a little extra vinegar, Tabasco and seasoning to taste, then add a splash of water if you like it thinner.
• Chill until very cold, then serve with a dollop more yogurt, mint, chives and a few ice cubes if you like. The soup will keep in the fridge for 2 days - just give it a good stir before serving.

CUCUMBER GAZPACHO

Steps:

• Thinly slice one of the cucumbers to equal 1/3 cup. Transfer cucumber slices to a small bowl; cover and chill until ready to use.
• Coarsely chop remaining cucumbers and transfer to a blender. Add honeydew, bread cubes, 1/4 cup oil, vinegar, and 2 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt. Process on low speed, gradually increasing speed to high, until cucumber mixture is very smooth and creamy, about 90 seconds.
• Pour gazpacho into a medium bowl. Cover and chill until cold, about 1 hour.
• Right before serving, toss together reserved cucumber slices, feta cheese, mint, honey, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl.
• Stir and ladle gazpacho into 4 shallow bowls. Top evenly with cucumber-feta mixture and drizzle with olive oil.

CUCUMBER GAZPACHO WITH WATERMELON AND MINT

Steps:

• Reserve 2 tablespoons of the mint. Place the remaining mint in a large bowl along with the cucumbers, 2 cups watermelon, yogurt, onion, cilantro, lemon juice, ginger, cayenne pepper and 2 teaspoon salt. In small batches, puree in a food processor until smooth. Place in a pitcher or large bowl and refrigerate for 2 hours.
• Taste the gazpacho before serving and season with additional salt if needed. Divide the soup among 6 chilled bowls and top with the feta, toasted pepitas, remaining watermelon, reserved mint and a drizzle of chili infused oil.
