Sweet Corn Gazpacho Recipe
This corn gazpacho blends sweet corn, yellow tomatoes, bell peppers, olive oil, and lime into a silky chilled soup bursting with summer flavor. It's easy to make ahead and perfect for serving on hot days.
Ingredients
- 2 lb yellow tomatoes, roughly chopped
- 2 yellow bell peppers, seeded and roughly chopped
- 3 ears corn, removed from cob - save a few kernels for garnish
- ¼ cup white onion, roughly chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, smashed
- Optional: ¼ jalapeño pepper, seeded, for texture, not spiciness
- 2 teaspoons sea salt, use good-quality salt here - no boxed salt!
- ½ cup olive oil
- ¼ cup sherry vinegar
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
- Sea salt, to taste
- Olive oil, cilantro, corn, and fresh ground pepper, to serve
Instructions
- Combine the yellow tomatoes, bell peppers, corn (reserve a few kernels to garnish), onion, garlic, and jalapeño pepper in a large bowl. Sprinkle the sea salt over the top and mix well. Set the bowl aside on your counter for 10 minutes. (Can be left for up to 4 hours, if needed.)2 lb yellow tomatoes, 2 yellow bell peppers, 3 ears corn, ¼ cup white onion, 2 cloves garlic, Optional: ¼ jalapeño pepper, 2 teaspoons sea salt
- Working in batches blend the soup along with the olive oil. We like this soup quite creamy, but if you think you might like it a little chunky, blend the soup just a little, taste, and then continue to blend it until it's perfect for you.½ cup olive oil
- Pour the blended gazpacho into a large mixing bowl. Whisk in the lime juice. Add the sherry vinegar 1 tablespoon at a time, tasting as you go. We like to add 4 tablespoons of sherry vinegar and ½ teaspoon more sea salt.
- Serve the corn gazpacho with the reserved corn kernels, some cilantro, black pepper, and a little drizzle of olive oil.¼ cup sherry vinegar, 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice, Olive oil, cilantro, corn, and fresh ground pepper
Notes
This soup can be made up to three days in advance and stored in a jar in your fridge. It will separate a little so give the jar a shake before you serve it.
