Gazpacho is best described as which of the following?

Hot stew from Spain Cold Spanish soup served in warm weather Dessert Salad dressing

Correct Answer:

Cold Spanish soup served in warm weather

Explanation:

Gazpacho is a cold Spanish soup enjoyed especially in warm weather. It’s typically made with fresh vegetables like tomatoes, cucumber, peppers, and onion, blended or finely chopped, then brightened with olive oil, vinegar, and seasonings; sometimes a bit of bread is added for body. The hallmark is serving it chilled, which makes it refreshing on hot days and sets it apart from hot stews. It isn’t a dessert or a dressing, and its soup-like, liquid consistency differentiates it from a salad.
