  • As a Spaniard I love to see how you try spanish dishes! Gazpacho and Salmorejo are both typical dishes from Andalucía but Salmorejo is known to be specifically from the region of Córdoba and people there are very proud of it. The classic recipe couldn't be easier: 1kg of tomatoes, 100g of extra virgin olive oil, 200g of bread, a garlic clove and 10g of salt. After you blend the tomatoes you want to strain the puree to get rid of the seeds and get a smoother texture and then you blend everything else. Of course there's no better topping than Jamón Ibérico though that pizza recipe was mouthwatering tbh hahaha

    • I ate this like 13 years ago in an office cafeteria in Sevilla and it's remained my favorite soup ever. A guy that was eating there shared his mother's version (he adds a cooked egg when blending and a dash of vinegar ) I've made it so much throughout the years.

    • I grew up on Gazpacho but I only discovered Salmorejo later in life. But there is nothing better than making this with your own (very ripe) tomatoes! In summer, this is a complete meal: you have all the vitamins and minerals of the tomatoes (or in case of gazpacho, of cucumber and peppers as well), the healthy fat of the olive oil, the starch from the bread and the protein from the egg and jamón. Good to have it in your fridge like in Almodóvars movie (Women on the brink of nervous breakdown).

    • Mix together 5cm piece of ginger grated, 3 cloves garlic grated, 2 tsp black onion (nigella) seeds 1tsp fennel seeds, 1-2 tsp cumin seeds lightly crushed, 1/2tsp turmeric, 1/2 tsp chilli powder, 2tsp sea salt and 6 tablespoons olive oil in a large roasting tin. Add 6 baby aubergines/eggplants or 2 large ones sliced and 400g of cherry tomatoes, halved. Toss so everything is well coated and arrange aubergine slices on top of the tom's. Roast at 200C/160C fan for 40-45 mins. I find it's best to give everything a bit of a stir 1/2 way through and maybe add a little water if it's looking a bit dry. The tomatoes should much down to a nice sauce. This is an ultra lazy version of a Madhur Jaffrey recipe. A very mild but really tasty vegan curry. I suspect that you could swop the aubergines for cauliflower florets but haven't tried yet. Also why not fill your freezer with a tomato base which can become soup, bolognese sauce, chicken casserole, pizza sauce etc etc. I roast the tomatoes while sweating down chopped onions, celery, carrots and garlic. Peel the tomatoes if needed and then add to the soffrito, blitz roughly with a hand blender, add herbs and simmer on a low heat until the juices have thickened - 1-2 hours. Season at the end because it's difficult not to overdo it if you season before it's reduced. Adding carrots means you don't need any sugar. You can add tomato paste before the tomatoes (so you can cook it out) and it will thicken faster. I think salmorejo is one of the classic national dishes that most European countries have for using stale bread with cheap plentiful ingredients. I was rather horrified that you put your iberico in the pizza oven, but I will definitely try the tomato feta pasta sauce. Who cares what it looks like if it tastes yummy!

    • Ive roasted my cherry tomatoes with garlic and onions then run through the squeezo thing on my kitchenaid mixer for years now. The flavor is so different and sweeter than some of the larger tomatoes. Don't get me wrong I love big tomatoes for my red sauce but the mixed color cherry tomato sauce has its own charm too. But too many yellow ones in the mix gives you a weird light orange sauce lol

  • Thai Tomato Chili Jam is a great way to use a glut of cherry/ plum tomatoes. Will generally store 4-6 months and makes good Thanksgiving /Christmas gifts for cheese / charcuterie boards. Longer it’s stored the more intense the chili heat. Can be diluted with rice wine vinegar, sesame oil and sugar for dipping sauce for spring rolls or dim sum. Very versatile.

    • @@camillewinnie27 Here you go Camille. This is the recipe I use. Tomato Chilli Jam 500g tomatoes, chopped 4 red chillies, seeded and chopped 4 garlic cloves 5cm piece of fresh root ginger, chopped 2 tbsp Thai fish sauce 300g soft brown sugar 100ml red wine vinegar 3 Thai (KAFFIR) lime leaves You can also use lime zest, or lemon grass 55g raisins 1. Place half the tomatoes, the chilli, garlic, ginger and fish sauce in a food processor and blend to a puree. 2. Place this puree in a heavy-based saucepan with the sugar, vinegar, lime leaves and raisins and bring to the boil slowly, stirring. 3. Chop the remaining tomatoes into small dice and add to the jam once it has come to the boil. 4. Simmer gently for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally. If the tomatoes are very watery it may need longer, but the jam will thicken when cold. My tip: as with all chutneys keep an eye on this towards the end of the cooking time, as it could start burning on the bottom of the pan. Ps This jam is v. adaptable. The base is the tomatoes, chillies, sugar and vinegar. I’ve left out the raisins on some occasions. What you add or negate in terms of “flavourings” v. much up to you. I’m not sure where I got this recipe, otherwise I would credit it. I thought it might be Sarah Raven but her version omits the raisins.

  • Spanish here, i've grown eating salmorejo and i can swear it's an absolute treat to have in the summer heat, over here it's standard to blanch the tomatoes and peel them afterwards so the salmorejo takes a much smoother texture. Also there's a wide range in the consistency from soup to straight up drink, it mostly depends on which one you prefer, here at my house we also throw small pieces of cucumber as topping and my mother tends to throw an apple to add a bit of sweet in there. Been following you since a long time and love your videos, i've learnt so much about cooking from you.

  • One of my favorite tomato recipes is inspired by a trip to Malaga, Spain, in which they serve porra as a dip with bread. I, however, love it on pizza as a sauce. In addition, it also freezes pretty well for later. You will need: 1 kg tomatoes (peeled and deseeded), 2 garlic cloves, 2 large red sweet peppers, 2 TBS sherry vinegar, olive oil, bread to thicken. Blend all together until very thick.

  • Loved all the recipes! One of my favorite ways to use up tomatoes is something my aunt in Korea used to make for me whenever I would visit. She cuts up the tomatoes into big chunks and freezes them, then blends them up with some milk and sweetener into a delicious and refreshing smoothie. Tomato in a dessert may sound odd but tomato popsicles are a popular dessert in Korea and this smoothie is my aunt’s own version of that! So good!

  • These look like some great recipes to try out! We currently are over run with tomatoes as well. My favorite way to eat tomatoes are either straight off the plant or as Brown Butter Tomato Sandwiches. First you brown the butter in a sauce pan. Then slice up some different varieties of tomatoes (for some color) and place the tomatoes into a bowl and pour the browned butter on top. Let the butter seep into the tomatoes for a few minutes. Then sprinkle some salt on top. I also like to toast some bread in the toaster. Then you just put the tomatoes on the toast and eat it like a sandwich. So good! If you try this Mike I hope you like it!! I’m obsessed. Can’t wait to try that pesto pizza! Looks amazing. I first found this recipe on Roots & Refuge YT channel.

This is the recipe I use for Cherry Tomato Jam 1 lb of cherry tomatoes, washed & cut in half 1 small onion diced ½ cup brown sugar 1 ½ tsp of ginger peeled and chopped or equivalent ginger paste ½ tsp of salt 1 tbsp of olive oil 1 tbsp of cider vinegar ¼ tsp of chili flakes, optional 1) Add oil to a saucepan at medium-high heat and add onions. Sautee onions until they are soft, about 3-5 minutes. 2) Add tomatoes, sugar, ginger, vinegar, salt, and chili flakes and bring to a boil 3) Reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes stirring occasionally until the mixture thickens into a jam-like consistency. 4) Allow to cool slightly, add to a small glass jar, and seal with lid. 5) Cherry tomato jam is an excellent replacement for ketchup on fries or burgers. Put it on pizza instead of regular tomato sauce, spread it on sandwiches, or add it to a vinaigrette. The jam will keep up to 3 weeks in the fridge, it also stores well in the freezer if you want to double or triple the recipe.

  • This video was so helpful! The tomatoes always seem to go crazy at the end and you feel like youre drowning in tomatoes. I love making fresh pasta sauces of course but a fun one this year I tried was a Roasted Cherry Tomato Grilled Cheese with gouda and bacon.

  • Great video! My favorite way to use fresh tomatoes is a true Greek salad that is simply tomatoes, feta, Kalamata olives, cucumber, a little onion, very good olive oil, a little vinegar and salt and pepper. Fresh bread with that is *chef’s kiss*

  • My favorite tomato dish has to be pizza hands down, there’s just something magical about the combination. I can’t get enough of that fresh acidic tomato sauce. Excited to try your basil pesto pizza in this video, my grandparents are also dealing with tomato overload lol

  • Love the pizza. I make a version of that for myself once a week. I grew an entire bed of basil this year and made/froze enough pesto for the year. My favorite thing to do with my garden tomatoes is actually dehydrate them and make ‘sun dried’ tomatoes in high quality olive oil 😊

  • I love to do a cherry tomatoe gnocchi sheet pan dinner. Also so easy! Just toss cherry tomatoes, a packet of gnocchi, some onions and peppers are fun too, that fresh basil, and bake at 425 for like 20 min tossing half way. It’s the perfect texture and taste!

  • I love canning my extra tomatoes for salsa or pizza sauce recipes or drying the plethora of tomatoes out of my garden to give and keep sun dried tomatoes, but my go to this time of year is a simple Caprese Salad with fresh mozzarella, basil out of the garden, olive oil, a drizzle of balsamic vinegar, and some fresh cracked pepper. Love all the recipe ideas.

  • I love gardening, but I don’t love cooking… unless its pizza!! I’ve enjoyed watching and learning from your channel cause there’s truly a different level of joy when I get to cook something I grow! So far my mozzarella, pesto & roasted tomatoes paninis are my favorite if I’m not making pesto pizza.

  • My husband is a picky eater so I usually have to blender the tomato’s or use tomato paste. Recently we’ve been obsessed with the creamy tortellini soup recipe on Kitchen Stories. It’s rare to have a tomato based dish that even he likes but we were both drinking the soup like crazy! ❤

  • I plant tomatoes in my Aussie garden and they are very prosperous fruiters. I love both large and cherry varieties. They are great for preserving, so try your dehydrator for your own sun-dried tomatoes. Cook pasta sauces that you can freeze in batches for those busy nights. I love making green tomato relish and tomato chutneys for our sandwiches during non-tomato season. We also trade our surplus veggies with neighbours.

  • Great video! I too planted several tomatoes - a bit late in the season, though - that I hope to get a nice yield. My go-to tomato-based recipe is called Puttanesca sauce. I enjoy simmering white fish in it, but honestl, it makes everything taste even more delicious. I'll definitely squirrel away the dishes you featured to try later with the harvest my garden offers. Thanks again!

  • I was gifted a handful of fresh garden tomatoes this year. I have never had that many at once! I ended up using them in my beef chili. I’m not sure if I can ever go back to the store bought canned tomatoes in my beef chili ever again! It made it so flavorful! I wasn’t sure what to do with the amount of fresh tomatoes. I’m a very picky eater. I don’t like roasts. This will give me some inspiration for the next time I have garden fresh tomatoes.

  • I already decided I was making the tomato and feta pasta sauce. I do a simple roasted tomato, one without the cheese and it’s really good. I add roasted pinenuts and arugula to it but I’m gonna try this version tomorrow. I definitely want to make the butter chicken. I’ve always wanted to try it. I love how roasting the tomatoes in the air fryer worked. I will give that a shot as well and oh, that sandwich!! I love tomatoes I wanna try it all!!
