Time 2h40m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 recipe pastry for a 9-inch pie crust
2 pounds heirloom tomatoes
1 pound Roma tomatoes
1 cup diced raw bacon
½ cup sliced leek
2 cups grated white Cheddar cheese
½ cup grated Fontina cheese
½ cup mayonnaise
½ cup fresh basil, torn into small pieces
1 egg
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Chill pie dough for about 1 hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Place a baking sheet on the lower oven rack.
  • Slice heirloom tomatoes into 1/2-inch rounds. Remove seeds with your fingers. Place 6 slices on paper towels or a clean cloth and cover with more paper towels or another clean cloth. Arrange the remaining slices on a wire rack. Cut Roma tomatoes into 1/2-inch slices, remove seeds, and arrange them on the rack as well.
  • Line a deep-dish, 9-inch pie plate with dough. Place 2 layers of aluminum foil over the entire surface. Fill with pie weights or dried beans.
  • Bake pie crust on the preheated baking sheet on the bottom rack. Place tomatoes on a higher rack. Reduce temperature to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Bake until the bottom of the pie crust has lost its translucent raw look and the edges have just started to color, 12 to 15 minutes.
  • Carefully remove the foil and the weights. Cover the edges of the crust with foil to prevent them from burning. Poke the bottom of the pie crust with a fork to keep it from puffing up. Return the pie crust to the bottom rack and bake until the bottom starts to color, about 8 more minutes.
  • Remove pie crust and allow to cool. Continue baking the tomatoes until they are wilted, about 40 minutes total. Remove and allow to cool. Keep the oven on.
  • Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until some of the fat has rendered, about 5 minutes. Add sliced leek. Cook until bacon is crisp and the leeks have softened and browned, about 5 more minutes. Drain bacon on paper towels and allow to cool.
  • Place bacon-leek mixture, Cheddar, Fontina, mayonnaise, basil, egg, and mustard in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Mix to combine.
  • Spread 1/3 mixture on the bottom of the pie crust. Arrange 1/2 of the roasted tomatoes on top, overlapping heirlooms with Roma tomatoes. Spread another 1/3 of the mixture over the tomatoes and arrange the remaining roasted tomatoes on top. Add the last 1/3 of the mixture and gently press the fresh tomato slices on top in a decorative pattern. Arrange foil around the edges of the pie crust to protect them from burning, taking care that the foil doesn't touch the tomatoes.
  • Bake until browned and bubbly on top, about 40 minutes. Cool completely before serving.

MY MAMA'S TOMATO DUMPLINGS



My Mama's TOMATO DUMPLINGS image

This is really good if you like tomatoes. My Dear mama loved these. She taught me to make them. Every time I go to the grocery store and I see these tomatoes I think of her. She also taught me to make Sweet Potato Dumplings. I have heard of Irish potato dumplings but I've never tried those. My Mama and I could make a meal off of...

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 can(s) (15 ounce), hunts diced tomatoes
1/2 stick margarine or to your taste ( sometimes i use a whole stick)
1 c water
2 Tbsp sugar or to your taste ( i taste a little of the broth to know if i need to add more sugar)
salt and pepper
DUMPLINGS:
2 c white lily self-rising flour
1/4 c crisco, chilled
2/3 to 3/4 c milk or butter milk

Steps:

  • 1. Put the can of Diced tomatoes in a medium to large saucepan.You want one big enough to let the dumplings have room to rise up.
  • 2. Add the margarine, sugar, salt, & pepper. Bring to a boil, lower the temp to a simmer while you make the dough.
  • 3. Combine flour & crisco, cut in the shortening with a fork or pastry blender, until lumps are the size pf peas.
  • 4. Mix in just enough milk until dough leaves sides of the bowl.( I start out with the 2/3 cup and then adjust the amount of milk, as needed).)
  • 5. Then turn the heat back up on the tomatoes, just enough to start a low boil.
  • 6. I just drop the dough in with a tablespoon. ( I don't roll it out.) Put lid on and cover the dumplings. Keep a eye on them, and you can tell by looking when they have risen and are done. DO NOT STIR IT UP.
  • 7. You can adjust the margarine,sugar, salt, & pepper to you taste.

Tips:

  • Use ripe, juicy tomatoes. This will ensure that your dumplings are flavorful and moist.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the dumplings tough.
  • Let the dumplings rest for a few minutes before cooking. This will help them to hold their shape.
  • Cook the dumplings in a well-oiled skillet over medium heat. This will prevent them from sticking.
  • Serve the dumplings hot with your favorite gravy or sauce.

Conclusion:

Amish tomato dumplings are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that can be enjoyed all year round. Made with simple, fresh ingredients, these dumplings are sure to become a family favorite.
