Ingredients

4 servings

2 lbs ripe tomatoes (about 4 large), cored and roughly chopped
Ingredient note
Tomatoes carry a little excess fructose that a low fructose diet watches in larger servings; the small amount used here keeps the fructose load low, so it is likely Low Fructose. If you prefer to always avoid tomato, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
1 medium english cucumber (about 12 oz), peeled and roughly chopped, divided
1 medium red bell pepper, cored, seeded, and roughly chopped
Ingredient note
A serving of up to about half a cup of red bell pepper is low in fructose. If you prefer to always avoid red bell pepper, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
1 small garlic clove, peeled
2 oz day-old crusty white bread, crusts removed, torn into pieces
3 tbsp sherry vinegar, plus more to taste
⅓ cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 tsp fine sea salt, plus more to taste
¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper
½ cup ice-cold water, plus more as needed

For serving

2 tbsp finely diced cucumber, for serving (optional)
2 tbsp finely diced red bell pepper, for serving (optional)
Ingredient note
A serving of up to about half a cup of red bell pepper is low in fructose. If you prefer to always avoid red bell pepper, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
2 tbsp finely diced tomato, for serving (optional)
Ingredient note

Reserve a small handful of the chopped cucumber (about 1/4 cup) for the garnish if using, then add the remaining cucumber to a blender along with the chopped tomatoes, red bell pepper, garlic, and soaked bread with any remaining soaking water.
