ARTICHOKE AND TOMATO SALAD



ARTICHOKE AND TOMATO SALAD image

Categories     Salad     Vegetable     Side     No-Cook

Yield 6-8 servings.

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 (4-ounce) jars marinated artichoke hearts
1/2 cup white wine
Juice of 1 lemon
1 whole fennel or 1 small bunch celery, sliced
6 medium tomatoes, sliced
2 small onions, diced
1 clove garlic
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. white pepper
1/2 cup warm beef broth

Steps:

  • Drain artichoke hearts; reserve marinade. Cut hearts in half; place in large salad bowl. Combine reserved marinade, wine, and lemon juice; pour over artichokes. Clean and wash fennel/celery; slice. Add to artichokes. Add tomatoes and onions. Mash garlic with salt and pepper; add to beef broth. Mix well; pour over vegetables. Marinate at least 10 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes. Look for tomatoes that are deep red in color and have no blemishes. Avoid tomatoes that are green or have soft spots.
  • Use fresh artichokes if possible. Fresh artichokes have a more delicate flavor than canned or frozen artichokes. However, if you are using canned or frozen artichokes, be sure to drain them well before using.
  • Marinate the artichokes. Marinating the artichokes in a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and herbs will help to enhance their flavor.
  • Roast the artichokes. Roasting the artichokes will help to bring out their natural sweetness. You can roast the artichokes in a hot oven or on a grill.
  • Use a variety of cheeses. This recipe calls for Parmesan cheese and mozzarella cheese, but you can use any type of cheese that you like. Some other good options include feta cheese, goat cheese, and Asiago cheese.
  • Add some fresh herbs. Fresh herbs, such as basil, oregano, and thyme, will help to brighten up the flavor of the salad.

Conclusion:

This artichoke and tomato salad is a delicious and refreshing dish that is perfect for a summer meal. The combination of roasted artichokes, fresh tomatoes, and creamy cheese is sure to please everyone at the table. If you are looking for a new salad recipe to try, this is the one for you!
