Radish, Tarragon, And Roasted Garlic Gazpacho
- 2.5 pounds Ripe Tomatoes
- 1 pound Cucumber
- 1 bunch Radishes
- 1 tablespoon Chopped Tarragon
- 1 Head Roasted Garlic
- 1/4 cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 1 lime
- 1 teaspoon Sea Salt
- 1/2 teaspoon Smoked Paprika
- 1 dash Aleppo Pepper Flakes (or any hot pepper, to taste)
- Cut the top off a head of garlic, exposing the cloves, drizzle with olive oil, and wrap in tin foil. Roast until tender in an oven at 300 or in a barbecue (away from direct heat to prevent burning) for 30 minutes. You can do this the night or two before as you cook dinner and then store in the fridge.
- Peel your cucumbers and tomatoes. An easy way to peel tomatoes is to drop them in boiling water for 30 seconds or until the skin starts to split.
- Working in batches, process your cucumbers and tomatoes until completely smooth.
- Add the tarragon, about 4 cloves of roasted garlic (or to taste), the paprika, and Aleppo pepper and give it a few pulses to thoroughly mix.
- Chop the radishes in half, then pulse in the food processor about 3 or 4 times until they are in small pieces, but still big enough to give a satisfying crunch.
- Mix the tomato-cucumber mixture, the radishes, the olive oil, and salt seasoned to taste.
- Refrigerate your gazpacho for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight as the flavors intensify.
- Before serving, stir in the juice of one lime. rnServe chilled.
