Grape Gazpacho

Having bought grapes today at the Indian Store, we had this great idea of Cold Grape Soup. Yahoo Search showed this to be a rare concept :) But loosely inspired by this blog we went ahead and made a grape gazpacho, which has worked out really well.

Soak 3 slices of bread in water.
Take 1/2 cup of almonds (as little skin as possible) + 1 medium-sized clove of garlic - grind in food processor.
Add that to the blender with the soaked bread + some water. Blend.
Add some olive oil, coarse salt, sherry vinegar. Blend.
Add grapes in stages, blending and tasting in each step. If the soup becomes too flat because of excess grapes, add some vinegar to compensate.
Chill and serve with grapes as garnish.
Enjoy.
