Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Put the bread crumbs, garlic and oil into the container of a food processor or electric blender. Blend thoroughly.

  2. Step 2

    Add one-half cup of diced tomatoes, one-half cup diced cucumber, the vinegar, chopped scallion, diced red pepper, the tomato juice, sugar and half the basil and blend as smoothly as possible. Scrape the liquid into a mixing bowl and add the remaining tomatoes, cucumber, onion, red pepper and basil. Blend well.

  3. Step 3

    Pour about one-fourth cup of the sauce into a saucepan and add the gelatin. Cook, stirring, over very low heat until the gelatin dissolves. Combine the gazpacho with the gelatin mixture and blend well.

  4. Step 4

    Let cool but do not allow the mixture to set.

  5. Step 5

    Beat the egg whites until they stand in soft peaks. Scrape them into the gazpacho mixture and blend well with a whisk.

  6. Step 6

    Lightly oil the inside of four individual half-cup souffle dishes, ramekins or other molds. Spoon or ladle equal portions of the gazpacho mixture into each mold. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight. To serve, run a knife around the inside of each mold. Sit the molds briefly in a basin of warm water. Wipe off the bottom of the molds, and invert each on a plate.
