Green Cucumber Mint Gazpacho Recipes

Steps:

• Scrape cucumber seeds into a fine mesh sieve and press out as much liquid as possible. Reserve liquid and roughly chop cucumbers.
• Combine cucumbers and cucumber liquid in the bowl of a food processor; process until smooth.
• Whisk cucumber puree and sour cream together in a bowl. Season with sugar and cayenne. Cover and refrigerate.
• Mash together mint, olive oil, and hazelnuts in a mortar and pestle until a paste forms. Season with salt and lemon juice.
• Divide gazpacho between individual bowls and place a spoonful of mint paste on top of each.

Steps:

• Blend honeydew melon, cucumber, onion, avocado, jalapeno pepper, garlic, white balsamic vinegar, lime juice, salt, and black pepper in a blender until smooth. Adjust seasonings if desired and chill before serving.

Steps:

• Put all the ingredients, except the oil, pea shoots and ice cubes, into a food processor with a good pinch of salt and pepper and blitz, adding enough water to get a soupy consistency. Taste, and add a little more vinegar and seasoning if necessary. Chill for up to 24 hrs, or at least 2 hrs.
• To serve, divide between shallow soup bowls, float a few ice cubes in each bowl (see tip, below) and add a scattering of pea shoots and a drizzle of oil before serving.
