This is a classic gazpacho: Silky, spicy, laden with tomato. We drink this one in a glass, standing around the kitchen (sometimes a touch of vodka added) or sit down to a bowlful. Either way, you’ll want Firehook crackers on hand — try Hummus Crunch, Multigrain Flax or Za’atar to compliment this soup. Make this recipe, adapted from classic Spanish versions, with golden yellow or good ol’ beefsteak tomatoes.  Serves 4-6.

At its simplest, labneh is just yogurt strained to lose most of its whey, or liquid.
