The Kitchen and Drinks Cabinet

It’s hot in Lisbon, some 39°C, it calls for a fresh light lunch. A cold gazpacho, Spanish style, and a simple sandwich: rustic bread, cheese, red onion chutney and sliced tomato. On my backyard, watching my cats playing
Oh my... I request that gazpacho recipe please! :D
I still dream of the gazpacho I had while visiting Madrid in the middle of summer. 🤤 I have not found a recipe that replicates that perfection.

Did you consider laying the cabinets on their backs and joining them together first, then putting them in place? I am working on my kitchen now and doing that saved me a lot of trouble leveling because the cabinets are now essentially one large unit.

The secret for a good gazpacho lies on ripe, aromatic and fresh red tomatoes.

The rest is history... and I simply can't give you a recipe as I do it all without measures

some tomatoes, white sweet onion, cucumber, green bell pepper, garlic. save some of the veggies, finely minced
I peel the tomatoes using boiling water (some people don't peel them, but I like to do it)
some people take the seeds and juice away, I really don't care and use the whole thing
More tomatoes than any of the rest, maybe 2:1
salt, olive oil, vinegar, some oregano (I just love that herb, we use it a lot in the Alentejo region), ice cold water (just to get the right consistency, thicker or thinner, the way it pleases you most)
I'm not forgetting the black pepper, as I don't use it in this soup
sometimes I use the hand blender, some others the jug one
But I really can't be more precise about quantities. When I feel it's not balanced, I add what I think is missing...
Serve it chilled, minced veggies and bread croutons as toppings
I guess my spanish neighbors don't use minced fresh coriander as a topping, but I always use some if I have
Sorry for not having a proper recipe

I found one on the net that seems good, you may give a try.
I don't fancy any other toppings besides the ones I've mentioned (minced tomato, cucumber and green bell pepper, bread croutons, fresh coriander), but you can try some of her suggestions

as a curiosity, portuguese gaspacho (gaspacho à alentejana) is a similar soup, in terms of ingredients, but with a very different texture: everything is diced, as a salad, seasoned, and finally some ice cold water is added, together with slices of rustic, two-days-old bread.

Just returned from a business trip to Umbria (Italy). I tried a typical dish: finely chopped lamb heart and lungs, cooked in tomato sauce and herbs. Accompaniment: red Sagrantino wine (also typical of the area)
