Fresh Tomato Dressing Recipes

Steps:

• Heat a broiler to high. Place the tomatoes on a sheet pan and broil until the skin is charred and peeling, about 6 minutes. Flip and char the other sides until the tomatoes are soft and begin to release some of their moisture, about 5 minutes. If using cherry tomatoes, blister without turning until the tomatoes char, collapse and release their moisture, about 10 minutes.
• When the whole tomatoes are cool enough to handle, transfer them to a board and coarsely chop. (Skip this step if you used cherry tomatoes.) Transfer the tomatoes with their juices to a medium bowl. Add the shallot, sherry vinegar, red-pepper flakes, if using, and the salt and pepper. Stir in the olive oil. Taste and add more vinegar and salt if necessary.
• Use immediately or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Serve as a dressing over cooked leafy greens, green salads, grain salads, roasted or grilled vegetables, meat and fish.

Steps:

• Arrange the tomato slices in a shallow casserole dish. Whisk together the olive oil, thyme, oregano, parsley, chives, and garlic in a small bowl. Add salt and pepper to taste. Pour herb mixture over the tomatoes, covering evenly. Top with Parmesan cheese. Cover, and refrigerate at least 1 hour before serving.

Steps:

• combine all ingredients in medium bowl.
• chill for 1 hour.
• Serve over a garden fresh salad and enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees.
• Brush the garlic cloves with 1 teaspoon of the oil, reserving the remaining oil.
• Roast the oiled garlic cloves in a pan until golden and soft, about 10 to 15 minutes.
• Watch carefully so garlic does not get over-brown or burn.
• Carefully remove pan from oven and cool.
• When cool enough to handle, squeeze out the garlic pulp.
• Combine the pulp with the reserved olive oil and rest of the ingredients in a blender.
• Blend until smooth and use the dressing on any mixed garden salad.
• Refrigerate leftover.
