Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by washing and carefully chopping the rhubarb, cucumber, and shallot into small, uniform pieces.
  2. In a high-speed blender, combine the chopped rhubarb, cucumber, shallot, and a generous handful of fresh mint leaves. Add in the olive oil, honey, lime juice, salt, and your choice of water.
  3. Blend the mixture on high speed for 1-2 minutes until it achieves a silky-smooth consistency.
  4. Once blended, pour the gazpacho mixture into a jar or bowl and cover it tightly. Place it in the refrigerator to chill for at least 30 minutes.
  5. Before serving, give the chilled gazpacho a good stir to ensure all the flavors are well mixed. Garnish with olive oil, fresh mint leaves, or thin cucumber slices.

Notes

The longer the gazpacho sits, the more the flavors meld beautifully. Aim for uniform pieces when chopping vegetables for even blending and a pleasing texture.
