Gazpacho -- Great Labor Day Treat

Gazpacho is, apart from tomatoes, just about anything else you love will work. This is my basic gazpacho recipe and serves as a base for everything else.

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds of tomatoes (preferably home grown or local farm grown)

  • 1/2 red onion, sliced fine

  • 2 Tbsp. garlic

  • 1/2 cucumber

  • 2 sticks celery

  • 1/2-1 Tbsp. vinegar

Instructions

Slice the tomatoes and remove any white residue in or around the seeds.

Place the tomatoes into a food processor (or something equivalent) and process until the tomatoes are very fine.

Add the garlic, onions, cucumber and celery to the tomatoes, taste and add just enough vinegar (or maybe some sugar), salt and pepper until the gazpacho seems just ready.

Refrigerate for at least two hours (more if you can).
