Real Spanish Gazpacho - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 -5 large mature and juicy tomatoes
    1 cucumber
    1 italian pepper (red is preferred as it gives a more vivid colour to the gazpacho)
    1 garlic, glove
    1 loaf white bread
    3 -4 tablespoons olive oil (to taste)
    1 -2 tablespoon wine vinegar (sherry vinegar is preferred)
    salt and pepper
    Optional
    minced hard-boiled egg (optional)
    minced cured ham (optional)
    toasted crouton (optional)
    cucumber, cubes (optional)
Preparation
    The first thing to do (after washing your hands lol) is to peel and deseed the tomatoes, garlic, pepper and cucumber.
    Wet the bread with some water and put all the ingredients in a food processor. And that's it!
    You can add water if you want your gazpacho more liquid, but I recommend you not to add too much. Also you can add some onion or/and more garlic to taste.
    Refrigerate and serve cold (you can add ice instead of water).
    This is the gazpacho recipe but it is usually eaten with toasted breadcrumbs,or/and minced boiled egg and minces cured ham, or even with some cucumber cubes.
