Gazpacho

The seasoning was sublime, and I can honestly say this tasted the best ever for gazpacho. There were a lot of groans of satisfaction from the whole family. I learned from Ina Garten to never substitute V-8 for the tomato juice. The only changes I made were to omit the tarragon and add extra fresh basil, and omit the parsley. I added all the optional ingredients and instead of mincing, I did a fine chop by hand. It was phenominal especially with fresh ingredients in such hot weather.
