Gazpiche
This creative dish presented by Chef Alejandra Espinoza combines a traditional Spanish gazpacho with classic Ecuadorian ceviche, which typically has a red, tomato-based broth.
We’ve substituted smoked watermelon for the tomato, but have kept the umami components of the gazpacho to make what we think is one of our most creative dishes.
Enjoy!
