Background of the Dish

The gazpacho is a traditional Spanish soup and also one of the oldest dishes to be created in Andalusia.

The best tomato gazpacho quickly became the protagonist of every meal during the hot summer days in Southern Spain, and as time went by, people developed new versions of it.

The keto gazpacho is one of the most recent alternatives, and it is pretty similar to the gazpacho recipe without bread, but the main difference is that here all of the ingredients are keto-friendly.

Things You’ll Need for Keto Gazpacho

To make this gazpacho recipe you will need tomates, cucumber, onion and olive oíl as the main ingredients.

Besides that, you need a blender or food processor to blend the keto gazpacho.

Ingredients

• 1.5kg ripe tomatoes
• 1 cucumber
• 1 green bell pepper
• 1 small red onion
• 2 garlic cloves
• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional, for added spice)
• Fresh basil or cilantro, for garnish

How to Make Keto Gazpacho – Step by Step Guide

1. To start with this Andalusian cold tomato soup recipe you have to wash the tomatoes, cucumber, and green bell pepper. 

2. Then, remove the cores with the seeds from the tomatoes and cut them into quarters. They don’t have to be even pieces as you will process them later.

3. Now, peel and chop the cucumber. Remove the seeds and stem from the bell pepper and roughly chop it.

4. After that, peel and chop the red onion. Also, peel the garlic cloves.

5. Next, place the tomatoes, cucumber, green bell pepper, red onion, and peeled garlic cloves in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth and well combined.

6. For the next step add the olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, black pepper, paprika, and cayenne pepper (if using) to the blender. 

7. Now blend again until all the ingredients are fully incorporated and the cold Spanish tomato soup has a smooth consistency.

8. Then, taste the keto gazpacho and adjust the seasoning if needed. You can add more salt, pepper, or vinegar according to your preference.

9. Take the Andalusian gazpacho to a large bowl and cover it. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until well chilled.

10. Before serving, give the Spanish cold tomato soup a good stir. Pour it into small bowls or glasses and garnish with fresh basil or cilantro leaves.

Substitution of Ingredients

For this keto gazpacho, as long as the gazpacho ingredients follow the keto diet guidelines, you can add them to this recipe.

Of course, tomatoes are the main star of this Spanish chilled soup, but you can replace the type that you use.

You can do like the heirloom tomato gazpacho or the yellow tomato gazpacho and use those types of tomatoes instead of the plum ones.

We recommend sticking with olive oil for this keto gazpacho (and with the amount listed in the recipe), but you can use canola oil as a replacement.

If you rather use coconut oil then you should melt it, and you can mix this keto gazpacho with other Spanish cold soups, like the carrot gazpacho or the watermelon gazpacho, as that fruit and vegetable goes well with the flavor of the coconut.

If you don’t want to make this gazpacho low carb then you can add a few tablespoons of heavy cream to add more texture, or a slice of stale bread to make it thicker.

We have other keto recipes that you can try like the keto mackerel recipe or the keto Spanish rice.

Tips on Serving Keto Gazpacho

As well as any gazpacho, this low carb gazpacho is meant to be served cold.

However, since it is a keto gazpacho, you have to be careful with the toppings that you use (so you don’t break the keto diet).

To stay on track with the keto diet you can serve this Spanish cold tomato soup topped with walnuts or pecan nuts.

You can also serve this keto gazpacho with shredded cheddar cheese or gouda cheese cubes.

If you aren’t leaning towards a keto version but still want it to be a healthy gazpacho recipe, then you can serve the gazpacho with crab, or other types of seafood.

Give a go to the watermelon tomato gazpacho, a fruity and savory Spanish cold soup recipe.

How to Store Keto Gazpacho

We love the fact that this keto gazpacho is an easy low carb soup, but it does have the downside that you can’t store it for too long.

However, you can store the keto gazpacho for up to 3 days in the fridge, as long as you cover it properly.

For that, you have to place the cold tomato soup in a container and cover it with a lid or plastic wrap, then place it in the refrigerator.

Once you are ready to enjoy the keto gazpacho, stir it around for a bit so the soup gains its consistency back.
