Sun Dried Tomato Vinaigrette Recipes

Steps:

• For the vinaigrette: Place the sun-dried tomatoes in a food processor and pulse to chop. Add the orange juice, olive oil, vinegar, salt and pepper. Process to a slightly chunky, relatively thick puree.
• To assemble: In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the pasta according to package directions. Drain and rinse in cold water.
• In a large bowl, toss the cooked pasta together with the arugula, olives, basil, mozzarella and the vinaigrette. Serve.

Steps:

• In a blender or small food processor, blend or process the tomatoes, vinegar, basil, thyme, and mustard on medium to high speed, about 25 seconds or until well combined. To store, transfer to a jar with a tight-fitting cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days. Shake well before serving.

Steps:

• Process all in a blender till smooth and pour over your favorite salad greens.

Steps:

• In a saucepan simmer the sun-dried tomatoes in 2 inches water for 3 minutes, or until they are tender, drain them, and mince them. In a bowl whisk together the tomatoes, the vinegars, and the garlic paste, add the oil in a stream, whisking, and whisk the vinaigrette until it is emulsified. Stir in the basil.

Steps:

• Place tomatoes, vinegar, garlic and basil in a blender and blend until smooth. Slowly add the olive oil until emulsified. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Preheat grill. Brush the vegetables with olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste. Grill until cooked through. Arrange on a platter and drizzle with tomato vinaigrette.

Steps:

• Place all ingredients in blender and mix until well blended.

Steps:

• Bring a small saucepan of water to a boil. Add the eggs and cook for 6 minutes. Drain and run under cold water until cool enough to handle. Peel and cut each in half.
• Put the sun-dried tomatoes in a bowl and pour 1/2 cup hot water over them. Let stand for 15 minutes. Drain well and return to the bowl. Stir in the lemon zest, elderflower cordial, oil, lemon juice, and vinegar. Season to taste with salt and let stand.
• Put the potatoes in a medium pot and add enough water to cover by 2 inches. Bring to a boil, season with salt, then reduce the heat to maintain a steady simmer. Cook until a knife pierces through the potatoes easily, about 20 minutes. Drain well. When cool enough to handle, peel and cut into 1/4-inch-thick rounds.
• Bring a medium pot of water to a boil and generously season with salt. Fill a large bowl with ice and water. Add the haricots verts to the boiling water and cook until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer to the ice water bath. Once cool, drain well.
• Cut the tuna into 4 even strips. Heat a large skillet over high heat. When hot, add just enough oil to film the bottom. Season the tuna with salt and pepper on all sides, then add to the hot oil. Cook until seared on all sides, about 1 minute per side. The center should be rare. Cut each piece crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick slices.
• Combine the greens, potatoes, beans, olives, tomatoes, and almost all of the dressing in a large bowl. Gently toss until everything is evenly coated. Transfer to a serving platter and top with the tuna and eggs. Drizzle with the remaining dressing.
