It was great, and even better the next day. I think I am convinced to de-seed when I have the time. I think there may be a difference in taste of the seeds depending on the type of tomato used. I have 2 kinds and I think the early girl seeds are bitter but the celebrity may be tastless--they are much smaller so harder to get all of them out.

Need to use up fresh raspberries so we shall see. I am thinking I may make this with a twist or two. Love your site.....pop on over for a visit sometime. By the way, love this soup!

But it did make the soup very light. I'd love to try out your gazpacho recipe - I didn't realize there's normally bread in it! @Jessi: I agree on the seeding – I probably wouldn’t do that again.

Call me lazy, but I blanch and peel the tomatoes, throw them in the blender, and call it done. I'm the kind of gal who would never peel potatoes or cucumbers, though, so even peeling the tomatoes is going pretty far. Side note: this is the first time I've seen a gazpacho recipe that doesn't have bread in it, which makes it kind of a different dish. Sounds tasty, though! Seeding? Why?
