Steps:
- Place the bread in a large bowl. Pour the reserved tomato juice over the stale bread and set it aside for at least 10 minutes. Not only will this soften the bread, but also infuse it with the tomato flavor.
- In a food processor or a powerful blender, add all of the chopped vegetables. Puree the vegetables until they start to breakdown.
- Add the bread and the sherry vinegar to the blender. Turn the blender on and stream in the olive oil. Puree the mixture until smooth. Taste and adjust the seasoning. If the consistency is too thick, add water or more vinegar if you like, to adjust the thickness. Place the gazpacho into the refrigerator to chill for at least 2 hours to allow flavors to marry with one another.
- Serve the gazpacho in glasses, like they do in Spain, or you can serve it in bowls if you prefer.
- Cook's Notes: To make your gazpacho spicier, add some of the ribs and seeds from the jalapeno. You can adjust the oil and vinegar in this recipe to make it tangier if you like!
- Gazpacho gets better the longer that it sits.
TOMATO-MELON GAZPACHO
I like gazpacho, but the ultimate minimalist version-take a few tomatoes, a red pepper, some onion, oil, and vinegar, and whiz it in a blender-doesn't always cut it for me. When I confessed this to my friend and sometime co-author Jean-Georges Vongerichten, he suggested I abandon tradition entirely and combine tomatoes with another fruit of the season: cantaloupe. These, combined with basil and lemon-in place of vinegar-produce the mildest, most delicious, creamiest gazpacho I've ever tasted. Make sure to use ripe cantaloupe and tomato at the height of the summer for the best results.

Steps:
- Cut the tomato flesh into 1-inch chunks. Seed the melon and remove the flesh from the rind; cut it into chunks. Put a tablespoon of olive oil in each of two 10- or 12-inch skillets and turn the heat under both to high (you can do this sequentially if you have only one skillet). Add the melon to one skillet and the tomatoes to the other and cook, stirring, until they become juicy, no longer than 2 minutes.
- In a blender, puree the melon, tomato, 1 1/2 cups water or 1 cup water plus 1/2 cup ice cubes, and the basil, along with some salt and pepper. Chill, then add lemon juice to taste and adjust the seasoning. Serve.
CREAMY MELON GAZPACHO
Entered for safe-keeping. From June 2012 Vegetarian Times. Spanish cooking combines sweet and savory in tapas and appetizers. Please be sure to use smoked paprika. The melon's stem end should smell sweet, and the melon should not be rock-hard. Preparation time includes 2 hours for chilling.
