Cream of Garlic Soup
Gazpacho is a soup widely eaten in Spain and neighboring Portugal particularly in the summer months, and is a delicious soup served either cold or hot. The original gazpacho was prepared by Arabs during their occupation of Spain in the Middle Ages. It consisted of bread, garlic, olive oil, vinegar, salt and water and was served hot – not cold, as is the custom of today.
