Roasted Tomato, Garlic Confit
And Burrata Appetizer
I’m not sure about you but we still have tomatoes coming out of our ears in our garden. As a matter of fact, I just put 4 full bags of tomatoes in the freezer today to preserve them for later.
What better way to enjoy your summer tomatoes with a belly warming dish just in time for our introduction to fall. How about a Tomato & Garlic Confit And Burrata Appetizer? What is this? A one pot tomato-ey, garlicy, cheesy dish to dunk a chunk of Rustic Coast Pastries bread into to warm you from the inside out.
Ingredients:
• 12oz Cherry Tomatoes
• 8oz Belgioto Cheese Burrata
• Salt & Pepper and Fresh Basil
Garlic Confit
• 2 Garlic Bulbs
• 1/2 Cup Olive Oil
• Salt & Pepper To Taste
• 3 Thyme Sprigs & 1 Rosemary Sprig
• 4 Slices of Rustic Coast Pastries Sourdough (or Rustic bread)
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350.
Add garlic to small pot with olive oil, salt and aromatics; cover and roast in oven for about an hour.
Remove from oven. Preheat oven to 450.
Add tomatoes to a skillet and pour the garlic confit over as you reserve some of the oil for the next cooking step. Season with salt and pepper and roast in oven for 15 - 20 minutes.
Once roasted to perfection, top with the burrata cheese, pepper, basil.
Enjoy with Rustic Coast Pastries slab of bread or sourdough cracker!
