CUCUMBER-AVOCADO GAZPACHO
I love this recipe when I'd like a cold soup but need a break from classic Spanish tomato-based gazpacho. Avocado is a nontraditional ingredient for gazpacho, but it makes a creamy and refreshing base when blended with almonds and cooling cucumber. I add lots of fresh herbs to brighten everything up. Give it a try and save those tomatoes for sauce!

Steps:
- Halve and pit 1 of the avocados and scoop the flesh into a blender. Add the quartered cucumbers, the basil, half of the mint, the 1/4 cup almonds, shallot, oil, lemon juice, vinegar, honey and water. Blend until smooth. Add salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate until ready to serve or serve immediately (see Cook's Note).
- When ready to serve, halve, pit and peel the remaining avocado and thinly slice the flesh. Divide the soup among 4 bowls. Garnish with the cucumber rounds, sliced avocado, the remaining 2 tablespoons mint and remaining 2 tablespoons almonds.

Steps:
- In a small bowl, gently fold the crab with the avocado, cucumber, tomato concasse, shallots, chives and lemon juice together. In a larger, separate bowl, fold the mayonnaise with the whipped cream. Using a spatula, fold the crab mixture into the mayonnaise mixture. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
- Place a 3-inch round cookie cutter in the center of a chilled plate. Fill the cookie cutter with the crab salad and remove the cookie cutter. There should be a cylinder of crab salad. Drizzle the Gazpacho Coulis around the crab salad, and garnish with chervil or basil.
- In a food processor, liquefy the tomato, tomato paste and cucumber. Juice the red pepper, garlic, and celery. With the food processor running, add the juice and olive oil to the tomato puree. Season with salt.
