==History== There are many theories as to the origin of gazpacho, including one that says it was a soup of [[bread]], [[olive oil]], water, [[vinegar]], and [[garlic]] that arrived in Spain with the [[Ancient Rome|Romans]].<ref>{{cite news|newspaper=[[The New York Times]]|title=Gazpacho: Theme And Variations|author=Steven Raichlen|date=30 August 1989|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1989/08/30/garden/gazpacho-theme-and-variations.html}}</ref> The word "gazpacho" may come from the Latin adjective caccabaceus, derived from caccabus ("cauldron"), attested in the works of Tertulian, Zeno of Verona and others. This word was applied in ancient Rome to a type of bread very similar to the [[torta de gazpacho]].<ref>[https://revistas.um.es/myrtia/article/view/588511/348591 Etimología de gazpacho (caccabaceus)]. Retrieved 11 December 2023.</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Brenner |first=Leslie |date=2003-08-13 |title=Forget what you know: This is gazpacho |url=https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2003-aug-13-fo-gazpa13-story.html |access-date=2024-06-29 |website=Los Angeles Times |language=en-US}}</ref> Once in [[Spain]], it became a part of southern cuisine, particularly in [[Córdoba, Spain|Córdoba]], [[Seville]] or [[Granada]] Castilian kingdoms, using [[staling|stale]] bread, garlic, olive oil, [[Edible salt|salt]], and vinegar, similar to [[ajoblanco]].<ref>[http://www.cliffordawright.com/history/gazpacho.html Facts about Gazpacho] [[Clifford A. Wright]]. Retrieved 6 July 2007.</ref> During the 19th century, red gazpacho was created when [[tomato]]es were added to the ingredients. This version spread internationally and remains commonly known. There are many modern variations of gazpacho with [[avocado]]s, [[cucumber]]s, [[parsley]], [[strawberries]], [[watermelon]], [[grape]]s, meat [[stock (food)|stock]], [[seafood]], and other ingredients instead of tomatoes and bread.<ref name=kate>{{cite web|publisher=Kate's Global Kitchen|url=http://www.globalgourmet.com/food/kgk/2001/0901/kgk090801.html|title=Last Blast Gazpacho: Tomato and Watermelon at Summer's End|author=Kate Heyhoe|access-date=7 June 2009|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090818182934/http://www.globalgourmet.com/food/kgk/2001/0901/kgk090801.html|archive-date=18 August 2009|url-status=dead}}</ref>
