If there are two foods that are characteristic of the summer, it is these: gazpacho and melon. Although it is becoming increasingly common to find them in the supermarket all year round, what is certain is that the summer is the best season to eat them. Both the melon and the vegetable ingredients of the traditional gazpacho are at their best for eating during the summertime.
Although it feels that they should be eaten separately, because one is a vegetable and the other is a fruit, we tell you how to make the most of all the virtues of these seasonal foods at the same time. This gazpacho is light, refreshing, tasty and has a sweetish flavour which will encourage to you make the recipe time and time again.
