Salting and draining the tomatoes first intensifies the flavor of the sauce. Use it as a topping for bruschetta; toss it with pasta; or use as a sauce for fish, poultry, or meat. Ingredients:
4 cups diced peeled plum tomatoes (2 pounds) |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil |
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper |
3 garlic cloves, crushed |
1/2 cup chopped fresh basil |
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley |
Directions:
1. Place tomatoes in a colander; sprinkle with salt. Drain 1 hour.
2. Combine the olive oil, peppers, and garlic in a large bowl. Stir in tomatoes, basil, and parsley.
