MOM'S MARINATED VEGETABLES

I got this recipe from my mother and I've never seen anything like it elsewhere. It's great for summer since it's cool and crisp. I like to take it to potlucks since it marinates overnight.

Categories     Appetizers and Snacks

Time 8h40m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 pound carrots, peeled and sliced
1 green bell pepper, sliced
1 onion, sliced
1 cucumber, peeled and sliced
3 stalks celery, sliced
1 cup cauliflower florets, broken into bite size pieces
1 cup broccoli florets, broken into bite size pieces
1 cup white sugar
¾ cup distilled white vinegar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon prepared yellow mustard
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ cup vegetable oil
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed tomato soup

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of lightly-salted water to a boil. Add the sliced carrots, and cook until just tender, about 3 minutes. Drain in a colander, then immediately immerse in ice water for several minutes until cold to stop the cooking process. Once the carrots are cold, drain well, and place into a large glass or plastic bowl.
  • Place the green pepper, onion, cucumber, celery, cauliflower, and broccoli into the bowl along with the carrot; set aside. In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, black pepper, mustard, and salt until the sugar begins to dissolve. Whisk in the vegetable oil and condensed tomato soup until smooth. Pour the marinade over the vegetables, and stir until evenly blended. Cover, and marinate overnight in the refrigerator.

MARINATED GRILLED VEGETABLES



Marinated Grilled Vegetables image

You'll always want a batch of these around: From the vegetables you grill to the seasonings you use, this recipe is endlessly adaptable. It also keeps for a few days and has so many applications. After the vegetables come off the grill, they soak in a piquant bath of coarse mustard, shallot and vinegar, though you could adjust flavorings as you wish: Add fresh or dried chile; thyme or rosemary; anchovy or capers; or a protein like feta, cubed salami, tofu or chickpeas. Then, use these deeply flavored vegetables on sandwiches, grilled bread, salads, frittatas, alongside grilled meat or fish, and so on.

Categories     dinner, vegetables, main course

Time 25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for greasing
1/4 cup red wine vinegar or sherry vinegar
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons whole-grain mustard
1 large shallot, thinly sliced
Kosher salt and black pepper
2 pounds grilling vegetables, such as peppers (bell, shishito, mini), broccoli rabe, broccolini, asparagus, radicchio, fennel, corn, zucchini, eggplant, green beans or snap peas

Steps:

  • Prepare a charcoal grill for two-zone cooking over medium-high heat by pouring the coals onto one half of the grill. For a gas grill, heat all of the burners to high, then turn one of the end burners off before cooking.
  • While the grill is heating, make the marinade: In a medium bowl, combine 3/4 cup oil, vinegar, mustard and shallot. Season with salt and pepper. Cut the vegetables into pieces that are large enough so as to not slip through the grates; for small or slender vegetables, like snap peas or green beans, leave them whole. Pat the vegetables dry, then transfer to a sheet pan, season with salt and pepper, and drizzle with enough olive oil to coat.
  • When you're ready to grill, take the marinade, vegetables, tongs and a tightly folded paper towel soaked with olive oil to the grill. Clean the grates with a grill brush, then oil the grates with the paper towel. Grill the vegetables over the flame, flipping occasionally, until well browned and tender, 2 to 15 minutes, depending on the density and size of the vegetables. (For a gas grill, close the lid between flips, listening and keeping an eye out for flare-ups.) As the vegetables finish, transfer them to the marinade. Let the vegetables sit in the marinade for at least 5 minutes. Leftovers will keep for up to 3 days in the fridge. Let come to room temperature before serving.
