gazpacho?

[silverwhisper]

is it good, bad, neutral, something else?

the mrs and i are having friends over tomorrow for dinner. the forecast is for high temperatures so we don't want to make anything hot, plus the meal needs to be vegetarian. we settled on making gazpacho and salad nicoise.

while discussing this earlier with SJ, she observed that she's repulsed by gazpacho. finding this stance most surprising, i retorted that she's weird.

this led inevitably to--what else?--a poll. :>

Um, how can you not like it? I may need to have a little talk with our dear SJ.

A soup made with chopped tomatoes and onions and cucumbers and peppers and herbs; served cold

Whilst the ingredients themselves (sans cucumber) seem nice I've never had the occasion nor the desire to try it.

 

[HoHoBomb]

Oh YES!

Gazpacho is most usually a tomato-based cold soup with a flavor that reminds me of salsa.

Here is a recipe.

I don't just dislike it. I loathe it. It's disgusting.

Oh Jaede... Methinks you need an intervention.

 

[Eilan]

I've never had it.

 

[Sarojaede]

Nope. This is not something I would ever change my mind about. Gazpacho is DISGUSTING.

If it doesn't have meat in it. It's not worth eating.

Besides, soup sucks. Cold soup is fed to the pigs

Mmmmmm - gazpacho. It needs to be made with fresh ingredients in season.

And served warm, with bits of beef in it ...

This is to Bobsgirl regarding her AV. This is the first time I've seen it with the red and green nipple lights.

You're killing me here. Red goes on the port (left) hand nipple. Green on the starbord (right). Sheez - when will you people ever learn!!

I totally agree. Again.

I got it confused with the Russian Beet Soup..

Either or not on my fav. things list.

 

[NippleMuncher]

I got it confused with the Russian Beet Soup..

No, no, that would be borscht. Gastapo is cold veggie soup ( misspelling intended ... ) Which would still be better if served warm with bits of beef.

 

[Nightbird]

Hey nice av pic..

Borscht is a cold veggie soup too isn't it??

 

[NippleMuncher]

Thanks.

Yes, borscht is a cold veggie soup, usually beet based, but there are non-beet varieties too.

Sily me. I once thought that you had taste. Perhaps I was mistaken.

I love the surprise of tangy spices in a cool dish. It's good for the sinuses.
