Gazpacho sorbet

The name gazpacho is actually an umbrella term for a wide variety of recipes depending on the most abundant ingredients at any given time and place. Gazpacho looks and tastes different in every family that makes it, and the end results can be very different. Immigrants from Andalusia and Extremadura in the mid-twentieth century brought with them a rich array of recipes including this emblematic dish, gazpacho. The fusion of culinary cultures, the old home and the new home, resulted in glorious evolutions that in modern times have materialised in propositions like watermelon gazpacho, strawberry gazpacho and beetroot gazpacho... In any case, as a superb summer dish, no one can resist trying it in its most refreshing variant: the sorbet.

Before Columbus arrived on the American continent and brought tomatoes and peppers back with him, gazpacho was made with other ingredients, as these didn't exist in Europe.

Tomatoes are the staple of the traditional Catalan diet. Whether raw or cooked, they can be found in most dishes, and we are sure that every Catalan worth their salt considers the classic tomato-rubbed bread to be one of the greatest culinary inventions.
