SPICY SUN-DRIED TOMATO SAUCE



Spicy Sun-Dried Tomato Sauce image

Medium-spicy flavor, tangy tomato taste (only for real sun-dried tomato lovers) and a bright, sweetish accent from the touch of orange and cinnamon. Use the best sun-dried tomatoes for this recipe. Try it on pasta (I suggest about 1/2 cup per 4 ounces pasta) with parmesan cheese or crumbled feta or toss with beans. It would also make a terrific pizza sauce. This recipe is easily halved and the sauce can be frozen. From Angelica's Home Kitchen in NYC, voted 2006 best vegetarian restaurant.

SUN-DRIED TOMATO SPREAD & CAYENNE TOASTS



SUN-DRIED TOMATO SPREAD & CAYENNE TOASTS image

Categories     Cheese     Tomato     Appetizer     No-Cook

Yield 8-12

Number Of Ingredients 17

Sun-dried tomato spread:
1 1/2 oz dried tomatoes (or sun-dried tomatoes in oil)
1 cup olive oil (or less if sun-dried tomatoes were packed in oil)
3-5 cloves garlic
2 parsley sprigs
5 basil leaves or 1 tsp dried leaf basil
3 French bread loaves
Topping:
1 cup olive oil
2 tsp cayenne pepper
1-1/2 tsp salt
1-1/2 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp black peppper
1 tsp paprika
1-1/2 tsp garlic powder
1-1/2 tsp onion powder
2 (4 oz.) goat cheese rounds

Steps:

  • Sun-dried tomato spread: To rehydrate dried tomatoes, place tomatoes on a steamer rack over simmering water until tomatoes are completely soft and have no hard spots, about 45 minutes. Check water level often to keep bottom of steamer from drying out. Place steamed tomatoes, in a 2-cup container with a tight fitting lid. Add all remaining ingredients. Cover container; shake to blend ingredients. Refrigerate at least 2 days to blend flavours. To serve, in a food processor fitted with a steel blade, process contents of container until almost smooth, leaving some texture. Cayenne Toasts: Preheat oven to 200°F. Prepare topping by whisking all topping ingredients, until blended, in a 2-quart bowl; set aside. Using a serrated bread knife or electric knife cut French bread into slices about 1/4 inch thick. Lay slices in single layers on ungreased baking sheets. Using a pastry brush, lightly coat 1 side of each bread slice with topping. Whisk mixture often while using so that seasonings do not settle to the bottom of the bowl. Dry in a preheated oven until very crisp, about 1 hour. The texture should be similar to Melba toast. Remove from the baking sheets; cool on wire racks. When completely cool, store in airtight containers until served or up to 2 days. Cooled toasts can be packed in freezer containers and frozen up to 2 months. Recrisp frozen toasts in preheated 350°F oven 5 to 7 minutes. Place goat cheese on 1 or 2 serving dishes; pour tomato spread over cheese. Use small knives to spread on cayenne toasts or crackers.

SUN-DRIED TOMATO SPREAD

I use this tomato-based spread in place of jelly on toast and bagels. My favorite is spreading it on tomato-basil bagels. I usually place 1/2 the spread in the refrigerator, and freeze the remainder for later use.
