Watermelon Gazpacho

About to make this wonderful sounding soup! thanks for all the tips. and to answer Michelle. Shallots are not scallions. They are like a small, reddish, oval onion. Used a lot in French cuisine. Have to be peeled. A green onion and a scallion are the same. Hope this helps.

A refreshing, delicious tasting recipe! This is a winner - even the skeptics loved it! On a hot summer evening, I brought it to a potluck as a first course to a dinner of Smoked Salmon and Cream Sauce Fettuccine. Everyone raved about it being the perfect pairing for our dinner, and everyone asked for the recipe/link.! I did vary the recipe by using 3 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice plus 3 tablespoons of Merlot since I am allergic to vinegar. I will definitely make this recipe again, and look forward to trying it with cilantro and a bit of cayenne/some spice as a variation! Thank you Eating Well!

I can't find anywhere to ask, but do you mean scallions (round, flat things) or green onions (long skinny things)? They aren't the same thing.

Fabulous!Delicious! I have made this dish several times always to rave reviews. Today I made it with lemon basil since that was what was available at the market. Even better than common basil. The sweeter the watermelon, the better this is. Try using the miniature seedless watermelons.Pros: So delicious and healthyCons: Lots of dicing, especially if the recipe is doubled--as it should be!

Made this as the first course for a summer lunch with the girls. Went together really easily and looked gorgeous. The flavours were divine, and slightly unexpected. Might be nice with mint rather than basil as something different. The girls all raved so this one is a winner.
