Tomato Tartar Recipes

FRESH TOMATO TARTAR SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients in a medium bowl.
• Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour before serving.
• Any leftover sauce may be stored, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 3 months.

TOMATO TARTARE

Steps:

• Dice the tomatoes very fine by hand and place them in a colander to drain for 1 hour. Transfer to a bowl.
• Gently mix the olives, shallot, chives and tarragon in with the drained tomatoes. Beat the mustard and vinegar together. Beat in the hazelnut oil and 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Fold in. Season with salt and pepper. Chill at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Brush the baguette slices with the remaining olive oil and dust with the dry herbs. Bake the slices for about 5 minutes, until lightly browned.
• Serve the tomato tartare with the baguette slices as a first course.

TOMATO TARTAR

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil and submerge the tomatoes. Boil until the skin begins to split, about 2 minutes. Drain and let sit until cool enough to handle.
• Carefully peel the skin off the tomatoes, then remove the seeds by cutting the tomatoes in half through the equator and shaking loose the seeds or popping them out with your finger. (You'll lose some of the liquid, and that's O.K.) Thoroughly drain the tomatoes in a gauze bag or mesh strainer for at least 30 minutes and then chop them roughly.
• Combine the remaining ingredients (except the eggs) in a bowl; add the tomatoes to the mixture and stir, then taste and adjust the seasoning. Put the tomato-tartar mixture in tart molds (tuna cans work perfectly) and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Carefully flip the tart molds over onto a plate to release the tartar; garnish with the grated eggs and serve with flatbread.
