Magenta!

Red Beet Gazpacho, Cucumber Noodles

A chilled soup is a perfect starter to a meal on a hot summer day. Instead of a traditional gazpacho made with tomatoes or a white gazpacho made with cucumbers, the red beets were cooked and pureed with some cucumber, garlic, onion, lime juice and cayenne pepper. The color is what really draws me in, like a deep pool of blood.
