"The gazpacho is a recipe specially cooked in Andalusia, the south of Spain,and that's where I come from! Reviewing recipes in this page I have found gazpacho recipes that have nothing to do with what is made in Spain, so I've decided to share with all of you the real recipe of this delicious cold vegetable summer soup, which can be served as a beverage, as a side dish or even as a main one. I hope you all enjoy it!...."
