Directions

This recipe comes to us from chef Kathy Gunst, one of our Chef's Table partners.
1. Working in batches in the container of a food processor or blender, combine the tomatoes, garlic, bread cubes, basil, scallions, onion, pepper, cucumber, oil, vinegar, and salt and pepper, to taste. Blend until almost smooth. The soup will be chunky. Taste for seasoning and add more oil and vinegar if too thick. Season to taste with more salt and pepper, if needed.
2. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Serve icy cold topped with any or all of the garnishes.
