Fresh Heirloom Tomato Pizza with Fresh Basil

August 6, 2021 No Comments

Tomato season has arrived here in Ontario and I couldn’t be happier. To say I’m a tomato fan would be an understatement. Since day one, I’ve been a tomato sandwich (with plenty of mayo, please and thank you) fan. Bruschetta is my love language and the Caprese is my go-to starter at any Italian restaurant. I adore tomatoes especially peak tomatoes. So, when tomato season rolls around, I want to add tomatoes to everything but I want to do almost nothing to them. It’s a bit of a conundrum really. But dishes like this Fresh Heirloom Tomato Pizza are the perfect workaround. This bad boy makes a meal out of tomatoes, without masking any of their considerable attributes.

Of all the things to love about summer, pasta salads easily make my top 10. I think they are the perfect food. They have all the carby comfort of a hot bowl of mac and cheese in February. But they are also capable of being as crisp and refreshing as a bowl of coleslaw. And pasta is just as versatile in a salad bowl as it is in a skillet. It can take on any fruit and veggie you throw at it. Soak in any dressing your imagination can dream up. And cozy up to any main event on your dinner plate. Or, if your me, pasta salad can dominate your dinner plate. Today’s Tirokafteri Pasta Salad is capable of delivering a full-meal-deal experience but it can also play nice with others.

The weekend is a blink away and summer mornings are perfect for ambitious brunch plans. So what better way to celebrate a Friday in July than with a delicious and surprisingly simple brunch recipe? This Mapo Tofu Frittata may seem complex and yes, it does require a few ingredients that you may or may not be familiar with. But I promise this frittata is as easy to pull off as any other. It just has more fire and moxie than its more pedestrian peers. The truth is complex flavors don’t always require complex techniques. So let’s dive right in.

I know, it’s been, like, a week since I posted my Seared Ribeye with Chili Crisp Butter and here I am with yet another chili crisp creation. It’s okay, you can think I’m obsessed. I know I am. And if you’ve ever tasted the magic that is Lao Gan Ma’s Spicy Chili Crisp, I’m confident you are as well. So you will forgive me for posting these Chili Crisp Tahini Noodles on the heels of that unforgettable butter. These noodles just demanded to be made. And with the official arrival of summer, this chilled noodle dish is a very helpful and heatwave-friendly meal to have in your back pocket. So repeat ingredients aside, this is all very timely.
