Yield: 4 ServingsRecipe by luhu.jp
Ingredients:
2 pint: Cherry tomatoes, preferably mixed colors, stems removed cut in half
2: Green onions, white part only, coarsely chopped
1/4 cup: Finely chopped parsley,
1 tbsp: Finely chopped rosemary, or
2 tsp: Dried chopped rosemary,
3: Garlic cloves, peeled, ends removed, minced
1/3 cup: Extra-virgin olive oil,
3 tbsp: Balsamic vinegar,
Salt, freshly ground black pepper to taste
PROVOLONE GARLIC BREAD
3 tbsp: Extra-virgin olive oil,
3: Garlic cloves, peeled, ends removed, minced
4 large: Thick slices of crusty bread,
4 Slices: , (1 1/2 ounces each) provolone cheese
1/4 cup: Freshly grated Parmesan cheese,
Directions:
1. Mix tomatoes, green onions, parsley, rosemary, garlic, olive oil
and vinegar in a shallow bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Cover the
bowl and let tomatoes marinate at room temperature at least 1 hour,
but preferably 3 to 4 hours or overnight. Stir occasionally.
2. For garlic bread, mix olive oil and garlic in a small bowl and let
stand 10 minutes so the flavors blend. Meanwhile, heat broiler. Brush
one side of each bread piece with the garlic/olive oil mixture, and
broil, oiled side up, until lightly browned. Place a slice of
provolone and a generous sprinkling of Parmesan on toasted side of
each slice, saving a little for garnish. Set the bread aside.
3. Just before serving, heat the broiler. Toast the bread under the
broiler until cheese is bubbly. To serve, put a piece of the bread in
a shallow soup bowl. Spoon about 3/4 cup of the tomatoes and marinade
on or around the edges of the bread. Garnish with more Parmesan and
serve.

with tomatoes
In a tomato frenzy? Heres what to do with all those fruits of the
vine: - Never refrigerate tomatoes; cold temperatures make the flesh
pulpy and destroy flavor. ~ Peeling tomatoes isnt necessary if
youre going to use them raw in salads, salsas or on sandwiches; wash
the skin before you stem and core. - To peel, immerse in boiling
water for 30 seconds; drain and peel with a paring knife. - To seed,
cut the tomato in half horizontally. Set a strainer over a bowl and
gently squeeze the seeds into it. - Or, if you want the shell intact,
cut off the top 1/2-inch; scoop out seeds and core with a grapefruit
spoon. - Never cook tomatoes or tomato-based sauces in an aluminum
pan; they lose their bright color and can pick up an unpleasant taste.
