Fresh Tomato Parmesan Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Heat a medium nonreactive saucepan over medium-high heat. Add 1/3 cup of the oil and the garlic, and reduce the heat to medium. Cook the garlic, stirring often and mashing gently with a wooden spoon, until golden brown and beginning to soften, 5 minutes. Add the basil, tomatoes and their juices, the carrots and cheese rinds. Stir with a wooden spoon to combine. Bring to a simmer and adjust the heat to maintain a simmer. Cook for 35 minutes stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Add 1 teaspoon of the salt. Remove from the heat and cool slightly.
• Remove the rinds, carrots and basil. At this point you can use an immersion blender to puree slightly or leave it as a chunky sauce.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the penne 2 minutes less than the package directions. Meanwhile, rewarm the sauce in a large, straight-sided skillet set over medium heat. Using a spider, strain the pasta from the water and add it directly into the pan with sauce, reserving 1/2 cup of the pasta water. Before stirring, sprinkle the pasta with the grated cheese. Toss the pasta, cheese and sauce together. Add the butter, the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and the reserved pasta water and continue to cook until the sauce is creamy and the pasta is al dente. Serve topped with more cheese if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place tomatoes in a bowl and toss gently with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Arrange on a baking sheet and top each tomato half with Parmesan cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven until Parmesan cheese is melted and slightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Saute onions and garlic and seasonings (savory, rosemary, salt, pepper, bay leaf, Blackened Redfish Seas) in butter and olive oil.
• Add wine and cook 1 minute.
• Add tomato sauce and half and half; simmer for 5-7 mintes, stirring frequently.
• Add peas and Parmesan, simmer until cheese is melted, 3-5 minutes.
• Serve tossed with your favorite pasta.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil and salt it.
• Melt the butter in a medium to large skillet over medium heat. When the foam subsides, add the tomatoes. Meanwhile, cook the pasta until it is tender but firm.
• Season the sauce with salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes break up, about 10 minutes; as the sauce dries add, add some pasta cooking water, a tablespoon or so at a time, to keep it moist.
• Finish cooking the pasta in the sauce, adding a little more pasta cooking water if necessary. (An Italian grandmother I know recommended this method to me 10 years ago, but I'm slow to catch on). Serve with Parmesan.

Steps:

• Cut tomatoes in half horizontally. Squeeze out the seeds and discard, if you wish. Press the cut side of tomato against the large holes of a box grater and grate tomato flesh into a bowl. Discard skins. You should have about 4 cups.
• Put tomato pulp in a low wide saucepan over high heat. Add salt, olive oil, tomato paste, garlic, basil and bay leaf. Bring to a boil, then lower heat to a brisk simmer.
• Reduce the sauce by almost half, stirring occasionally, to produce about 2 1/2 cups medium-thick sauce, 10 to 15 minutes. Taste and adjust salt. It will keep up to 5 days in the refrigerator or may be frozen.

Steps:

• Note: to make chiffonade, roll basil leaves lengthwise into tight cylinder. Slice cylinder crosswise into 1/8 inch ribbons. Heat oil in large heavy skillet over medium heat. Add onions, 1/2 tsp salt, a gring of black pepper, and a 1/2 tsp sugar; sauté until soft, about 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Add garlic; sauté 1 minute, stirring to prevent browning. Add tomatoes and balsamic vinegar and bring to simmer. Lower heat and cook uncovered until softened, stirring frequently. For a fresher sauce with firmer tomatoes, simmer just 5 minutes. For a softer, smoother sauce, simmer longer-up to 15 minutes. Stir in basil during last minute of cooking; add salt and pepper to taste. Top freshly cooked and drained Ricotta, Mozzarella & Asiago ravioli with sauce and finish with freshly grated parmesan cheese.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Arrange tomato slices in a single layer on a baking sheet. In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise, parmesan, Dijon mustard, and brown mustard. Season with oregano, and salt and pepper to taste. Use a spoon to top each tomato slice with a small amount of the mayonnaise mixture. Sprinkle with mozzarella , and then top with parsley.
• Bake in preheated oven for approximately 15 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve immediately.
