FLORIDA GAZPACHO WITH SHRIMP

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine tomatoes, green pepper, cucumber, red onion, green onion, chopped garlic, basil, cilantro, 3 tablespoons olive oil, rice wine vinegar, cayenne and oregano.
• Working in batches, process the mixture in a food processor or blender until blended but still chunky.
• Transfer to a large bowl and season with salt and ground white pepper. Cover and refrigerate until chilled, at least one hour.
• In a small saucepan, combine corn with 1/4 cup water. Bring to a boil over moderately high heat and cook until just tender, 2-3 minutes. Drain and let cool.
• Preheat the broiler and arrange the baguette slices on a baking sheet and toast until golden. Rub with the whole garlic cloves and drizzle with remaining olive oil; keep warm.
• To serve, stir the corn and shrimp into the gazpacho.
• Ladle the gazpacho into chilled soup plates and sprinkle with fresh chopped basil, if desired. Serve with warm garlic toast.
