Ingredients
- 1/4 whole watermelon seeded, scooped off of the rind and roughly chopped
- 2 whole peaches pitted and roughly chopped
- 1 whole shallot peeled and roughly chopped

- 2 pinches salt
- 1/2 teaspoon Sriracha
- 1/2 teaspoon strawberry balsamic vinegar
- 1/4 teaspoon worcestershire sauce

- Additional watermelon wedges as needed for garnish
Instructions
- Set up your food processor. In the bowl of it, combine the watermelon, peaches, shallot, basil, salt, Sriracha, strawberry balsamic, and Worcestershire, sauce. Give it a puree until it is uniform but still has some texture. Taste for salt and heat and add as necessary until it is to your liking.
- Transfer the watermelon peach gazpacho to a container and seal it up. Then let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
- Spoon the gazpacho into pretty bowls (or even martini glasses!) after it has been chilled, then garnish with some tendrils of basil chiffonade and a thin watermelon wedge. So pretty and refreshing to start a meal!
