Watermelon Gazpacho

The genius of this recipe is that it doesn’t require your stove top, oven, microwave, grill or any other conventional medium of cooking. All you need is a food processor or blender.

Add tomato to food processor or blender and pulse till liquefied. Pour tomato puree into a large mixing bowl.

Repeat with watermelon, combining the two liquefied ingredients with a whisk.

Add cucumber, Serrano and olive oil to the food processor and pulse till liquefied. Combine with watermelon and tomato purees.

Add shallot, garlic and vinegar to the food processor and liquefy. Incorporate with the rest of the ingredients. Done.

Note: you could in theory blend all of these things together at once if you have a large enough food processor. I like doing it in batches because then you can control the flavors better. For example, maybe you got a super sweet tomato and need more savory flavor, pull back on the watermelon. Play around and see what your perfect balance of flavors is!
