GRAPE AND CUCUMBER GAZPACHO
This riff on Spain's classic tangy-sweet "white" gazpacho is made with Persian cucumbers, which are tender enough to use peel and all. (If you can't find them, substitute peeled English cucumbers.) The drizzle of olive oil at the end brings the flavors together, so use the best oil in your pantry.

RED AND WHITE GAZPACHO
This refreshing chilled soup is based on a Spanish classic; white gazpacho, also known as Ajo Blanco. I used watermelon and apple in this recipe because I wanted to have a little fun with color and texture, and these two fruits eat well without turning the soup overly sweet. This gazpacho comes to play with sweet, sour and salty notes. Some gazpacho has bread blended into it, but this one is lighter, made with puréed almonds, and it is gluten free. I also garnished with fennel fronds, which really make it special.

Steps:
- For the gazpacho: In a blender, combine the cucumbers, verjus blanc or grape juice, fennel, grapes, almonds, apples, honey, vinegar, lime juice and salt to taste. Purée until smooth. With the blender on low, stream in the olive oil to emulsify. Adjust the seasonings. Strain the soup through a fine-mesh strainer into a bowl or large liquid measuring cup. If serving immediately, chill in an ice bath until cold. Otherwise, chill the soup in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Season with additional salt.
- Create small piles of the julienned watermelon and apples in the center of each of four bowls, then scatter the sliced grapes around the piles. Ladle the soup around the piles. Garnish with the fennel fronds. Serve immediately.

WHITE GAZPACHO
Steps:
- 1. Lightly toast 5 slices of bread. Remove the crusts then set the bread aside to soften in 1 cup of water. Lightly toast the almonds in a small skillet over medium-low heat until golden, about 7 minutes. Transfer the almonds to a food processor add the garlic and pulse until the almonds are finely ground. Squeeze the bread as dry as possible and add it, and about one-third of the grapes to the almonds. Process until the mixture is smooth.
- 2. Transfer the bread mixture to a bowl and gradually beat in first the vinegar, then 1/2 cup of the oil. Beat in the remaining two cups of water then strain the gazpacho through a fine sieve, forcing as much of the bread mixture through as possible. Season the gazpacho with salt and a pinch of cayenne and refrigerate until the soup is well chilled, at least one hour.
- 3. Before serving cut the remaining 3 slices of bread into 1-inch cubes. Fry the croutons over medium heat in the remaining 1/4 cup of oil until crisp and golden. Drain on paper towels. Cut the remaining grapes in halves or quarters. Serve the gazpacho in chilled bowls topped with the grapes, cucumbers, and croutons.
