Gazpacho
The word “gazpacho” in the Spanish language is used as a synonym for mishmash, hotchpotch, confusion. Depending on the place, the period, the economy and depending on the personal taste, thousands of gazpacho combinations exist. Etymologically, it may have been derived from the Mozarabic language word “caspa”, meaning “residue” or “fragments”, relating to the small pieces of bread and vegetables in a cold soup.
But “gazpacho” is more popular today than ever for other reasons - the renowned Mediterranean diet. “Gazpacho” is a great source of vitamins, vegetal fibres, polyunsaturated fatty acids, mineral salts, and carbohydrates. According to the latest research, this is the ideal food for people suffering from stress, convalescent patients and also for a diet (naturally without some of its normal ingredients) and also for a balanced diet. Basically, “gazpacho” is good for everyone, at any time and for any meal, as a main dish as well as a starter.
