HEIRLOOM TOMATO BRUSCHETTA



Heirloom Tomato Bruschetta image

Inspired by the Julie and Julia motion picture, here is a little twist on one of the most the delicious-looking recipes to grace the movie screen! Unless you and your guests are prepared to eat the bruschetta immediately, I suggest keeping the heirloom tomato mixture separate from the bread because it will become soggy. Serve the tomato mixture in one bowl and the bread on another serving platter. Be prepared to get a little messy!

Categories     Condiment/Spread     Tomato     Appetizer     Marinate

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 pounds green tomatoes
coarse sea salt
white wine vinegar
3 lg cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 tablespoons fennel seeds
2 tablespoons dried oregano
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
6 small hot chili peppers
extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Wash the tomatoes, but don't dry them. Slice them thinly, collecting all the juice in a bowl as you slice. Arrange the sliced tomatoes in the bowl in layers, sprinkling each layer with coarse sea salt. Place a large plate or bowl directly on top of the tomatoes and put a weight on the plate. Leave the tomatoes to marinate for 5 hours. Drain thoroughly. Add white wine vinegar to cover the tomatoes and leave for another 4 hours, then drain again. Layer the tomatoes into a sterilized jar, sprinkling each layer with small amounts of garlic, fennel seeds and oregano and a few drops of balsamic vinegar. Distribute the chili peppers here and there throughout the jar. Pour extra virgin olive oil over the tomatoes, shaking the jar to remove any air pockets. Cover tightly and store in a cool place. These tomatoes can be eaten after 5 days but will last for 5 month.

TOMATO BRUSCHETTA



Tomato Bruschetta image

This classic recipe is for lazy summer days that beg for moving slowly and snacking often. Chop tomatoes, place them in a colander, shower them with salt, then make yourself a drink or go for a swim. The longer they drain, the better they'll be. This bruschetta gets better as it sits for a bit, so make it up to an hour ahead. While most bruschetta recipes have you rub a raw garlic clove on toasted bread, this one calls for making a quick infused oil that's stirred into the tomatoes and basil, providing a more delicate garlicky note. Pile it all on toasted bread, and enjoy bite after juicy bite.

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound plum tomatoes (about 4 to 5 large), or another variety of ripe tomatoes
1 teaspoon kosher salt
5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 large garlic cloves, minced
8 large basil leaves
Grilled or toasted crusty bread, for serving

Steps:

  • Core and chop the tomatoes, then transfer to a colander over a bowl or in the sink. Add the salt and gently stir. Let drain for up to 2 hours.
  • Meanwhile, make the garlic oil: In a small saucepan, warm the olive oil and garlic over low heat until the garlic is softened and fragrant, about 5 minutes, making sure the garlic doesn't brown. Set aside to cool.
  • Roll the basil leaves up and thinly slice crosswise.
  • When the oil is cool and the tomatoes are well drained, combine the tomatoes, garlic oil and basil in a medium bowl. Season with additional salt, to taste. Spoon over toasted bread.
