• 6 cucumbers , peeled and seeded
• 1/3 cup white wine vinegar
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1 small red onion , minced

Cut 4 cucumbers into large chunks. Puree in a food processor with vinegar, 3/4 cup water and sugar until smooth. Remove and place in a large bowl. Chop the remaining two cucumbers into 1/4-inch cubes and combine with puree. Add red and yellow onions, scallions, parsley, three tablespoons olive oil and minced garlic. Mix well and season with salt and pepper to taste. (Additional salt and pepper are usually required.) Chill at least one hour.

Rub whole garlic clove on each country bread slice. Brush with remaining olive oil. Grill or broil over medium-high heat until golden brown. Serve garlic crisps hot or at room temperature with chilled gazpacho.
