But no basil and no romano... <br />(Would you believe I've used tofu in Italian recipes calling for ricotta cheese!)Tanyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00858446371419879296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27429478.post-27980184885627118712009-07-16T08:27:10.116-04:002009-07-16T08:27:10.116-04:00My father used to make something like this -- he&#...My father used to make something like this -- he's be 98 now, were he still alive, and had a prolific garden. No real recipe, just a method. No cooking, other than the pasta. Fresh tomatoes (diced), fresh basil, some fresh oregano, thinly sliced scallions/green onions, good olive oil, some balsamic or some red wine vinegar, S & P to taste. A few red pepper flakes if your taste runs that way. It ends up looking almost like an Italian riff on salsa. Let it sit at room temp for a couple of hours at least, then serve over warm pasta, with a liberal grating of fresh parm. He'd make a bunch & keep it in the fridge -- dinner/lunch for days! He made a mean gazpacho as well. Gotta love tomato time "near Philadelphia".Pat Deckhttp://www.imalldeckedout.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27429478.post-78294000921576351792009-07-16T07:36:08.961-04:002009-07-16T07:36:08.961-04:00Looks delicious, and will have to try it!
