GREEN TOMATO TOAST WITH RICOTTA SALATA AND LEMON
With super fresh tomatoes you don't need much more! This toast combines sharp ricotta salata cheese with plump green tomatoes and lemon juice for a refreshing bite. We like green zebra tomatoes for their pretty yellow stripes and bright, floral flavor, but any ripe green tomato will work in this dish.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. Spread the farro out onto a rimmed baking sheet and toast in the oven until it smells nutty, about 7 minutes. Add the toasted farro to the boiling water and cook until al dente, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain and toss with the raisins, lemon zest and juice in a large serving bowl.
- Toss the asparagus with 2 tablespoons oil, 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes and 1/4 teaspoon salt on a rimmed baking sheet and roast for 2 minutes.
- Meanwhile, toss the tomatoes with the remaining 2 tablespoons oil, 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Remove the asparagus from the oven and add the tomatoes to the baking sheet. Return to the oven and roast until the tomatoes begin to blister, about 3 minutes more.
- Toss the roasted asparagus and tomatoes with the farro along with the parsley. Top with the ricotta salata and serve.

Steps:
- In a small skillet cook shallots in oil over moderate heat, stirring, until softened. Stir in tomato and salt and pepper to taste and cook, stirring, 30 seconds, or until just heated through. In a bowl toss together tomato mixture with cheese, chives, vinegar, and salt and pepper to taste and mound about 1 tablespoon on oiled side of each toast.
- To make toasts:
- Prepare grill or preheat broiler.
- With a serrated knife cut bread crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Grill slices on a rack set about 4 inches over glowing coals 1 to 1 1/2 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crisp outside but still soft inside. Alternatively, slices may be broiled in batches under a broiler about 4 inches from heat 1 to 1 1/2 minutes or until golden. Rub toasts with garlic on one side and lightly brush same side with oil. Toasts may be made 1 week ahead and kept in an airtight container. Makes about 45 toasts.
Tips:
- Use firm, green tomatoes for this recipe. Red or ripe tomatoes will be too soft and mushy.
- Slice the tomatoes thinly so that they cook evenly.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the tomatoes. If the pan is too crowded, the tomatoes will steam instead of fry.
- Season the tomatoes with salt and pepper to taste.
- Use a good quality ricotta salata cheese. This cheese is firm and salty, and it pairs well with the sweet tomatoes.
- Add a squeeze of lemon juice to the tomatoes just before serving. This will brighten up the flavors.
- Serve the green tomato toast immediately.
Conclusion:
Green tomato toast with ricotta salata and lemon is a delicious and refreshing appetizer or snack. It's easy to make and can be enjoyed all year round. The combination of sweet tomatoes, salty cheese, and bright lemon is sure to please everyone.
