Time 4h30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 to 4 ripe tomatoes (about 3 pounds), thinly sliced into 1/4-inch rounds
1/2 small sweet onion, thinly sliced
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1 rolled 9-inch pie crust, store-bought or homemade
1 cup freshly grated sharp Cheddar
1 cup freshly grated mozzarella
1 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup fresh basil leaves, torn, plus small leaves for garnish

Steps:

  • Arrange the tomato and onion slices in a single layer on a paper towel-lined baking sheet and sprinkle with salt. Let sit for 1 to 2 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Fit the pie crust into a 9-inch pie plate and crimp the edges. Prick the bottom and sides with a fork. Line the crust with aluminum foil and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake until the edges of the crust are just golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove the foil and weights and continue to bake until the bottom of the crust is dry and brown, another 15 to 20 minutes. Cool completely.
  • Mix together the Cheddar, mozzarella and mayonnaise in a medium bowl. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few cracks of black pepper.
  • Transfer the tomatoes and onions to a dry paper towel and pat dry. Liberally season the tomatoes with cracked black pepper. Arrange a third of the tomatoes in a single layer in the pie crust, overlapping slightly. Sprinkle a third of the basil over the tomatoes and top with a third of the onions. Repeat twice with the remaining tomatoes, basil and onions. Spread the mayonnaise mixture over the top of the onions.
  • Bake until the topping is golden brown and bubbling, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool completely. Garnish with basil leaves. Serve at room temperature.

TARTE AUX MOUTARDE (FRENCH TOMATO AND MUSTARD PIE)



Tarte aux Moutarde (French Tomato and Mustard Pie) image

Lyon, France is considered the gastronomic capitol of the world. I moved there with the intent to learn this cuisine, and this tart is not only a family favorite but a very typical Lyonnaise dish. There are a lot of tomatoes in the summer time, so this dish became a staple. Enjoy! Great as a next day treat, and wonderful for picnic lunches.

HEIRLOOM TOMATO TART



Heirloom Tomato Tart image

Heirloom tomatoes may seem flawed, but it's actually their uniformly red counterparts who are the genetic deviants of the tomato family. Decades ago, many businesses decided to prioritize cookie-cutter-like hybrid tomatoes, which grow year-round and can survive a long, bumpy journey. It left heirloom tomatoes on the wrong side of the deal. The varieties that remain have a shorter shelf life and are relegated to just a few months of summer, but they're sweeter with a more robust flavor. This tart celebrates juicy, vibrant tomatoes in a cheesy, herby, custard-filled, flaky crust, with each bite punctuated with pesto.

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Dough for a 9-inch single crust pie, or use store-bought, rolled into an 11-inch round (see Note)
1 1/2 pounds ripe heirloom tomatoes (about 4 medium)
1/4 cup store-bought pesto
3/4 cup shredded mozzarella (about 3 ounces)
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh basil
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh oregano
3 large eggs
1/3 cup heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Fit the rolled-out dough into a 9-inch tart pan, allowing the edges to rise about 1/4 inch above the rim of the pan. Prick the dough all over with a fork.
  • Line the dough with aluminum foil and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake for 15 minutes until beginning to brown at the edges. Remove from the oven and carefully remove the foil and weights. Increase the oven temperature to 375 degrees.
  • Meanwhile, cut the tomatoes into 1/2-inch slices. Place in a colander to drain excess tomato liquid for 20 minutes.
  • Spread 1/4 cup pesto in an even layer over the parbaked tart crust. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella over the pesto. Sprinkle the fresh basil and oregano over the cheese.
  • In a medium bowl, prepare the custard: Whisk together the eggs, cream, salt and pepper until combined.
  • Place the sliced tomatoes evenly over the cheese and herbs in overlapping concentric circles.
  • Pour the custard evenly over the tomato slices. Swirl the pan to evenly distribute the liquid. Bake until the filling is set and won't jiggle when shaken, about 35 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving warm. This tart can also be served at room temperature.

TOMATO AND CORN CUSTARD PIE



Tomato and Corn Custard Pie image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 2h30m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 round refrigerated pie dough (half of a 14-ounce package)
2 beefsteak tomatoes (about 12 ounces)
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 ears of corn, kernels cut off (1 to 1 1/2 cups)
1 cup heavy cream
3 large eggs, lightly beaten
6 scallions, chopped
1 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese (about 4 ounces)
Freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
1/2 teaspoon paprika
Pinch of cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Position racks in the middle and upper third of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Line a 9-inch pie plate with the dough, crimping the edge with your fingers. Poke the bottom of the crust all over with a fork. Line with foil and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake on the middle rack until golden around the edge, about 20 minutes. Remove the foil and weights; continue baking until golden all over, about 10 more minutes.
  • Meanwhile, core the tomatoes and cut into 1/2-inch wedges; toss with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. Spread the tomatoes in a single layer on paper towels to drain until ready to use.
  • Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the corn and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 5 minutes. Transfer 1/2 cup of the corn to a large bowl.
  • Add the heavy cream to the saucepan with the remaining corn and bring to a simmer. Carefully transfer the mixture to a blender and puree until smooth; transfer to the bowl with the corn. Whisk in the eggs, half each of the scallions and cheese, and a few grinds of black pepper; pour into the crust. Bake on the middle rack until the custard is just set, 35 to 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and increase the temperature to 400 degrees F.
  • Mix the remaining scallions and cheese, the panko, thyme, paprika, cayenne and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and black pepper in a bowl. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of the mixture on top of the pie. Pat the tomato wedges with paper towels to absorb the excess moisture, then coat with the remaining panko mixture and arrange on top of the tart. Sprinkle any remaining panko on top; dot with the remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Return to the oven on the upper rack and bake until the top is golden, about 15 minutes. Let cool 30 minutes before slicing.

PECORINO CUSTARD WITH TOMATO SAUCE



Pecorino Custard With Tomato Sauce image

Adapted from a recipe in _Osteria_ by Rick Tramonto with Mary Goodbody, as reprinted by Michele Humes at Serious Eats. This hearty Italian _budino_ (pudding) is a great appetizer. It's essentially a bread pudding, but it's puréed before baking for a silky-smooth texture. You need a young Pecorino that's not too firm; an older cheese will turn grainy when it melts. The recipe calls for ciabatta bread, but any rustic, crusty white bread with an airy crumb will do (nothing too dense!). "Italian bread" is listed first to generate nutritional information - be sure to use ciabatta if you can find it.

Provided by DrGaellon

Categories     Cheese

Time 50m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups whole milk
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
5 large egg yolks
2 1/2 ounces Italian bread (about 2 1/2 slices) or 2 1/2 ounces ciabatta, crust removed and diced (about 2 1/2 slices)
18 slices Italian bread or 18 slices ciabatta, each 1/2-inch thick
14 ounces young pecorino romano cheese, shredded (by weight)
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 1/2 cups marinara sauce
fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300°F Spread the diced bread on a baking sheet and dry in the oven for 1 minute. Transfer to a large mixing bowl and set aside.
  • In a heavy saucepan, warm the milk and cream over medium-high heat, until heated through but not boiling.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk the egg yolks. When they are blended, drizzle in about 1/2 cup of the hot cream mixture to temper the eggs, whisking continuously. Slowly add the tempered eggs to the hot cream in the pan as you continue to whisk the mixture.
  • Increase the oven temperature to 325°F Pour the egg-cream mixture over the dried, diced bread to soak. Using a hand-held mixer or immersion blender, purée until smooth. Stir in the cheese.
  • Divide the mixture evenly among 6 6-ounce ramekins. Put the ramekins in a roasting pan. Pull out the middle rack of the oven and set the roasting pan on it. Add enough water to the pan to come 1/2 inch up the sides of the pan. Cover the pan with aluminum foil and slide the rack back inches.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the custard is heated through and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Lay the bread slices on a baking sheet and brush with olive oil. Toast in the oven, turning once, for 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • Meanwhile, heat the marinara sauce in a saucepan over medium-high heat until hot and bubbling.
  • Using tongs (wrap rubber bands around the tips to improve grip), transfer ramekins to a kitchen towel to dry. Place one ramekin on each of six serving plates and top each with about 1/4 cup of marinara sauce. Drizzle each ramekin with olive oil and pepper. Put three slices of toast on each plate and serve. (Turn off the oven and let the pan of hot water cool before removing it.).

Tips:

  • Use ripe, flavorful tomatoes: The quality of your tomatoes will greatly impact the flavor of your sauce. Choose ripe, red tomatoes that are free of blemishes and bruises.
  • Roast your tomatoes: Roasting tomatoes intensifies their flavor and sweetness. To roast tomatoes, simply toss them with olive oil and salt, then roast them in a preheated oven until they are slightly charred and softened.
  • Use a variety of herbs and spices: A good tomato sauce should have a balance of flavors. Experiment with different herbs and spices, such as basil, oregano, thyme, garlic, and onion, to create a sauce that is uniquely your own.
  • Simmer your sauce for a long time: The longer you simmer your sauce, the more time the flavors will have to meld and develop. Aim to simmer your sauce for at least 30 minutes, or even longer if you have the time.

Conclusion:

Tomato sauce is a versatile and delicious condiment that can be used in a variety of dishes. Whether you are using it as a topping for pasta, pizza, or chicken, or as a base for soup or stew, a good tomato sauce will always elevate your meal.
