Tortellini Salad with Tomato Garlic Dressing Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by รก-73576

Number Of Ingredients 18

For the Salad:
4 10-12 ounce bags frozen tortellini, cooked in boiling water until just done then cooled on a long baking tray
1 tablespoon olive oil stirred into the tortellinis while cooling, plus 1 tablespoon olive oil when salad ingredients are mixed
1/2 cup sun dried tomatoes, not in oil, sliced thinly, then halved
1 1/2 cups cherry or grape tomatoes, halved, any larger tomatoes in the batch quartered
1 16 ounce can artichoke hearts, quartered then cut in half
6 scallions, green part included, thin, chopped finely
1/2 cup fresh parsley, chopped
1/2 cup fresh basil, sliced chiffonade, then cut in half
1 teaspoon coarse kosher salt, and more to taste
1 teaspoon cracked black pepper
For the Dressing:
6 medium size tomatoes, cored, cut in half, grated on a hand grater down to the skin, discard skin and transfer grated tomatoes to a mixing bowl
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1/8 cup white wine vinegar
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon cracked black pepper

Steps:

  • For the Tortellini Salad: Into a long rectangular dish or container that has a fitted lid, gently combined the cooked, cooled tortellinis mixed with a tablespoon olive oil, the sun dried tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, artichoke hearts, and scallions. Stir the other one tablespoon of olive oil throughout the salad then fold in the fresh herbs, along with the salt and pepper, refrigerate until a few hours before serving. For the Dressing Scrape the grated tomatoes into a large glass mixing bowl then stir in the chopped garlic. Pour in the vinegar,drizzle in olive oil a little at a time whisking to incorporate with the tomato mixture. Add in the salt and pepper, check seasoning adding a little more salt and pepper to suited taste. Refrigerate until 3 hours before serving. Salad Assembly: Three hours before serving whisk dressing together then pour half into the Tortellini Salad and stir throughout. Immediately before serving salad pour in the remaining dressing and stir, adding in any extra seasoning with salt and pepper to taste. Transfer Tortellini Salad from container to a large serving platter lined with fresh greens if desired. Notes If the tortellini salad is mixed with the dressing too far in advance the tortellini will absorb the dressing taking the flavor from the tortellini's as well as losing the bright red color of the red tomatoes in the dressing.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, juicy tomatoes: The flavor of your dressing will depend on the quality of your tomatoes. Look for tomatoes that are deeply colored and have a slight give when you gently squeeze them.
  • Use fresh garlic: Fresh garlic will give your dressing a more intense flavor than garlic powder or granulated garlic.
  • Don't over-process the dressing: A few pulses in a food processor or blender is all you need to combine the ingredients. Over-processing will make the dressing too thick and creamy.
  • Taste the dressing before serving: Adjust the seasonings to your liking. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or herbs.
  • Use the dressing within a few days: Tomato garlic dressing is best when used fresh. It will keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Tomato garlic dressing is a versatile condiment that can be used on salads, sandwiches, grilled vegetables, and more. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With its bright, tangy flavor, tomato garlic dressing is sure to become a favorite in your kitchen.
