Peeky Toe Crab And Green Tomato Salad With Chilled Gazpacho Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• To make the crab salad, pick through the crabmeat and remove any cartilage or shells. Combine all remaining ingredients in a large bowl and mix to combine. Season with fine sea salt and freshly ground white pepper.
• For the green tomato relish combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix to combine. Season with fine sea salt and freshly ground white pepper.
• For the gazpacho sauce, combine all ingredients. If the tomatoes are very sweet adjust the flavor by adding more Banyuls vinegar. Season with fine sea salt and freshly ground pepper.
• To serve the crab salad, set out 4 chilled plates and place a 2-inch ring mold or round cookie cutter in the center of each plate. Fill the ring mold with the crab salad and top with a thin layer of the green tomato relish. Spoon the gazpacho sauce around the crab salad in a thin layer. To garnish the dish, place "dots" of the green tomato relish in the gazpacho sauce around the crab salad and top the crab salad with a basil top.

Steps:

• Place tomatoes in a large mixing bowl and toss with the salt. Transfer to a fine strainer and let drain for 20 to 30 minutes.
• In a shallow dish, combine tomatoes with the cucumber, onion, parsley, mint, chile peppers, lime juice and olive oil. Toss to combine. Add salt and pepper to taste.
