I don’t measure anything either. Baking may be a science but cooking can be a jam. Practical, fresh and definitely anyone can do this. Kenji is always covering the best of the basics. I love that this is the kind of thing you can toss in in the side if you have way too many tomatoes that you have no idea why to do with. I know I do.

    @klaasvdm 2 года назад

    The idea of salting before, and using the juice for the dressing is brilliant. But I also think the salad is supposed to get soggy, otherwise the big hunks of bread are unedible. But, this should happen while serving and eating, not before, so the texture changes during the meal. So, you could also store the tomatoes and bread separately and mix them when ordered. My two cents.

      It seems he goes for egg-based dishes like Frittata and Omelettes as a "throw everything you have left in it". Personally I go for pizzas, if you don't have dough, use tortillas and cook them in the oven, you can make a bunch of different themed ones to really make certain ingredients shine. Salads work great too, pick a green base and throw everything you've got in. You can use grilled cheeses, quesadillas, or other bread/dough + cheese + random filling type meals as well. Great for getting rid of various meat or to sautee up some veg and throw in.

    Edit: my recipe i always do, is a little bit different: no emulsion, because the bread soaks all the juices, so why should I?! We use cucumber in addition and it fits perfectly. I can recommend white balsamic vinegar. This gives a nice mix of acid and sweet. I love Ethans pickled red onion but in this salad I always use ordinary red onions like the Italians do and it’s very nice and sharp!

    Just a question not a critique, would you use that tomato with lots of green lines In this recipe in a restaurant? I always cut those away even for my homegrown tomatoes

      I’m not sure what you mean. Some tomatoes still have green stripes or can even be fully green when fully ripe (such as green zebras, for instance). Is that what you’re talking about?

      @@JKenjiLopezAlt from the stem end. It looks like the stem kinda of star shapes out into the flesh. I cut that out but end up losing so much tomato
