TOMATO & GOAT CHEESE CROSTATA
I'll always remember making my first crostata. It was from my friend Johanne Killeen's cookbook Cucina Simpatica. Johanne and her late husband George Germon started Al Forno restaurant in Providence; 40 years later, it's still one of my favorite places - and I just adore Johanne's cookbook. Her apple crostata is both elegant and earthy, a flaky, buttery crust filled with sweet apples. It's divine! Over the years, I've played around with lots of other sweet crostatas, like one with a raspberry-rhubarb filling (it's in my book Cooking for Jeffrey), but I also love savory crostatas. I make this tomato and goat cheese version with the same flaky crust (minus the sugar), a layer of creamy goat cheese on the bottom and big slices of gorgeous heirloom tomatoes on top. The trick is to bake it on an upside-down sheet pan: Because there are no sides on the pan to block the heat, the tart browns more evenly. This crostata, served with a salad, is a perfect summer lunch!

Steps:
- For the pastry, place the flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade and pulse to combine. Add the diced butter and toss carefully with your fingers to coat each piece of butter with flour. Pulse 12 to 15 times, until the butter is the size of peas. While pulsing, add the ice water all at once through the feed tube. Pulse to combine, stopping just before the dough forms a ball. Turn the dough out onto a well-floured board and form it into a disk. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for one hour.
- Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 450˚ F. Heat the 4 tablespoons butter in a large (12-inch) sauté pan over medium to medium-high heat. Add the leeks, thyme, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and sauté for 8 minutes, until the leeks are tender and starting to brown. Set aside. Place the tomatoes on a plate, sprinkle them with salt and pepper and drizzle lightly with olive oil. Set aside.
- On a floured board, roll the dough into an 11-inch circle, then place it on a sheet of parchment paper. Turn a sheet pan upside down and transfer the paper to the inverted pan. Spread the leeks on the pastry, leaving a 1 1/2-inch border. Crumble the goat cheese evenly on top. Arrange the tomatoes over the goat cheese, overlapping the slices because they will shrink. Turn the edges of the pastry up and over the tomatoes, crimping so they lie flat. Brush the pastry with the egg wash. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until the pastry is nicely browned. Allow to cool on the pan for 5 minutes, sprinkle lightly with the fresh herbs and salt, cut in wedges and serve warm.

DOUBLE TOMATO BRUSCHETTA
A delicious and easy appetizer. The balsamic vinegar gives it a little bite. Dried basil can be substituted but it is best with fresh.

Steps:
- Preheat broiler.
- Slice your bread, if you have not done so already; place them on a baking sheet which you have lined with aluminum foil (just in case something falls off and tries to burn).
- Place the bread under the broiler and toast until light golden; remove.
- Turn the bread over, place the bread under the broiler and toast just until the bread firms slightly but not golden yet; remove.
- Brush the lighter side with olive oil (you may decline this if you are using tomatoes packed in oil, but it's your choice).
- On top of that lay out some basil leaves to cover the top of the bread.
- Mince the sun-dried tomatoes and sprinkle on top of the basil; I use regular dried on mine that are still pliant like raisins; if yours are hard you may need to have soaked them in warm water in advance and squeezed dry then mince; but you can do that now, no biggie.
- On top of the tomatoes sprinkle a generous amount of goat cheese and tap down so it doesn't fall off.
- If you like you can add a pinch of sea salt but I didn't.
- Place the bruschettas under the broiler and toast just until the cheese starts to soften and the edges get nice and brown; serve.

Steps:
- For the sun-dried tomato jam:
- Place a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the chopped sun-dried tomatoes, 1 tablespoon of the reserved sun-dried tomato oil, olive oil, onion, and garlic. Stir and cook until the onions are soft and beginning to brown at the edges, about 5 to 7 minutes. Add the sugar, vinegar, water, chicken broth, thyme, salt, and pepper. Bring the liquid to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer, covered, for 30 minutes. Remove the cover and continue simmering until most of the liquid is reduced and the mixture is the consistency of jam, about 5 to 10 more minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
- For the crostini:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil.
- Place the baguette slices on the baking sheet. Using a pastry brush, lightly coat the baguette slices with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake until lightly toasted, about 8 minutes.
- Place the soft goat cheese in a small bowl. Stir in the thyme.
- To assemble:
- Spread the crostini with sun-dried tomato jam and top with the goat cheese and herb mixture. Transfer to a serving plate and serve.
SUN-DRIED TOMATO AND GOAT CHEESE OMELET
Sometimes the filling for my omelet is determined by something I find in my pantry. I don't recall what led me to buy the jar of sun-dried tomatoes that went into this one, but they were very much at home in an omelet.

Steps:
- Break the eggs into a bowl and beat with a fork or a whisk until they are frothy. Whisk in the milk, salt, pepper and garlic.
- Heat an 8-inch nonstick omelet pan over medium-high heat. Add 2 teaspoons olive oil. Hold your hand an inch or two above the pan, and when it feels hot, pour the eggs into the middle of the pan, scraping every last bit into the pan with a rubber spatula. Swirl the pan to distribute the eggs evenly over the surface. Shake the pan gently, tilting it slightly with one hand while lifting up the edges of the omelet with the spatula in your other hand, to let the eggs run underneath during the first few minutes of cooking.
- As soon as the eggs are set on the bottom, sprinkle the sun-dried tomatoes, cheese and basil over the middle of the egg "pancake," then jerk the pan quickly away from you then back toward you so that the omelet folds over onto itself. If you don't like your omelet runny in the middle (I do), jerk the pan again so that the omelet folds over once more. Cook for a minute or two longer. Tilt the pan and roll the omelet out onto a plate, and serve.
