Strawberries work so well in a cold gazpacho soup. This recipe is the ideal starter to any barbecue this summer. You can make the strawberry gazpacho a day in advance and store it in the fridge. This will help the flavours in the soup to develop much better. Serve it in cold glasses with a garnish of fresh burrata cheese, diced strawberries, cucumber and mint.
