https://youtu.be/X8u58EHx9Ho?si=N4_C5O14VxkVzi4YI don't think I'd seen a Jose Andres cooking video before, but the EweTube Al Gore Rhythm godz served this up to me tonight, and I really enjoyed it (and learned some things!).
This guy is frickin' hilarious, not something you see on the news when he's flying to the latest natural (ie manmade) disaster to help feed people. He made a beautiful plate of gazpacho, not like I've seen before.
I'm about two weeks into gazpacho/sweetcorn/peach/(forgot: cherry!) season, and I can just about see my belt buckle again without a mirror (it's an annual purge for me). I've never put gazpacho into a blender, but my last batch (finished today) the tomato pieces were getting a bit tired, so I poured it into a blender (sans bread) and made a delicious large smoothie, dressed with EVOO and black pepper. Yum! One of these days I may try the bread thing.
I have, years ago, carefully pushed out a tomato's "jelly" into one dish, and then ground up the flesh into another, and compared the tastes. Most of the tomato taste was in the jelly, but the texture was, eh, not great; the flesh had nice mouthfeel but not too much taste at all, so I agree with Mr. Andres, use the whole damn thing!
