Gazpacho with an Eastern European accent

I don’t know why I have not made this sooner, as this dish literally encapsulates all the flavours of the summer that I grew up with. There is a vast tradition of cold summer soups around Eastern Europe and this one blends (pardon the pun!) a few of them together. It takes about 3 minutes to make, is full of life-giving gut bacteria and tastes so refreshing! Give it a try before we can no longer pretend it’s summer out there!

serves 2

2 tomatoes or one cooked peeled beetroot
1/2 a cucumber, peeled
Dill, coriander and parsley (a fistful of each)
a teaspoon of mustard (or to taste)
100ml
4 Radishes finely diced to garnish
1 Hard boiled egg to garnish
Salt and pepper to taste
Blitz it all up and eat with a rye toast!
Enjoy! 💫
