Cherry Tomatoes Persillade Recipes

CHERRY TOMATO CRISP

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a food processor, combine bread, Parmesan cheese, parsley leaves, olive oil, and garlic; season with coarse salt and ground pepper. Pulse until bread is very coarsely chopped, 4 to 6 times.
• In an 8-inch square baking dish, arrange cherry tomatoes in a single layer; sprinkle with crumb mixture. Bake until crust is browned and tomatoes are tender, 20 to 25 minutes.

ROASTED CHERRY TOMATOES WITH ANGEL HAIR

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Combine tomatoes, olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper in a bowl until well mixed; spread on a shallow-sided baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until tomatoes are soft and wrinkled, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook angel hair pasta in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until tender yet firm to the bite, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain; reserving a small amount of cooking water.
• Spoon tomatoes with their juices into a small saucepan; add basil and red pepper flakes. Mix in reserved cooking water to thin tomato mixture to desired consistency. Cook and stir over low heat until warmed, about 5 minutes; stir in pasta. Top with Parmesan cheese before serving.

MARINATED CHERRY TOMATO SALAD

Steps:

• In a small bowl or cup measure, mix together oil, apple cider vinegar, herbs, salt, and sugar.
• Pour dressing over cherry tomatoes in a serving dish, and gently stir to coat. Chill for at least 2 hours. Gently stir from bottom to top, coating all tomatoes, before serving.

ROASTED CHERRY TOMATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Toss the tomatoes lightly with olive oil on a sheet pan. Spread them out into one layer and sprinkle generously with kosher salt and pepper. Roast for 15 to 20 minutes, until the tomatoes are soft.
• Transfer the tomatoes to a serving platter and sprinkle with basil leaves and sea salt. Serve hot or at room temperature.

CHERRY TOMATOES PERSILLADE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 325 degrees.
• Halve the tomatoes and squeeze out the seeds, and place them cut-side up in a 9-by-9-inch glass baking dish.
• Sprinkle the salt and olive oil over them and bake for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, until they're a little caramelized around the edges and slightly shriveled.
• Mince the parsley and the garlic together on a cutting board until very fine to make the persillade; set aside.
• When the tomatoes are done, take them out of the oven, sprinkle the persillade over them and return them to the oven for a few minutes, which will cook the garlic a little without compromising the freshness of the parsley.
• Serve immediately or later at room temperature.

SIMPLE CHERRY TOMATO SALSA.

Steps:

• Place the onion and garlic in a food processor, and pulse until finely chopped.
• Add the cherry tomatoes and cilantro, and pulse until you reach the desired consistency.
• If there is a lot of excess liquid, drain some out. Add the lime juice and salt, and stir.
• Serve with tortilla chips.
