This summer-ready cucumber gazpacho recipe has an underlying sweetness from honeydew and honey, while the sherry vinegar sharpens those flavors. Serve it with soft herbs, a yogurt drizzle, olive oil-toasted bread cubes, or delicate-tasting seafood, such as crab.

Ingredients

  • 2 large English cucumbers
  • 3 cups chopped honeydew melon
  • 1 cup cubed crustless day-old white bread
  • 0.25 cups olive oil , plus more for drizzling
  • 1 tablespoon sherry vinegar
  • 2.25 teaspoons kosher salt , plus more to taste
  • 0.25 cups crumbled feta cheese
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
  • 2 teaspoons honey

    Thinly slice enough cucumber to measure ⅓ cup; coarsely chop remaining cucumber. Transfer slices to a small bowl; cover and chill until ready to use.

  2. 2

    Combine chopped cucumber, honeydew, bread cubes, ¼ cup oil, sherry vinegar, and 2 ¼ teaspoons kosher salt in a blender; blend on low speed, gradually increasing to high speed, until very smooth and creamy, about 90 seconds.

  3. 3

    Transfer gazpacho to a bowl; cover and chill until cold, about 1 hour.

  4. 4
