Treat your ingredients with care...

• Seafood — Ensure that the seafood is fresh and properly cleaned before adding it to the Gazpachuelo. Overcooking the seafood can result in a rubbery texture, so be careful not to exceed the recommended cooking time.

Tips & Tricks

• For a creamier texture, you can blend a small portion of the cooked potatoes before adding the seafood.
• Experiment with different types of seafood to find your favorite combination.
• Squeeze some fresh lemon juice over the Gazpachuelo just before serving to enhance the flavors.
• Serve the Gazpachuelo with crusty bread for a complete meal.
• Leftovers can be refrigerated and enjoyed the next day, as the flavors tend to develop and intensify over time.

Serving advice

Serve the Gazpachuelo hot in individual bowls. Accompany it with a side of crusty bread for dipping and enjoy the creamy and flavorful soup with a spoon.

Presentation advice

Garnish each bowl of Gazpachuelo with a sprinkle of fresh parsley to add a pop of color and freshness to the dish. Serve it in beautiful ceramic bowls to enhance the visual appeal.
