Best Grilled Green Tomatoes With Burrata And Green Juice Recipes

TOMATOES AND BURRATA

Steps:

• Cut the ball of cheese in half crosswise and place the halves, cut side down, on 2 salad plates. Cut each tomato in half through the stem end and distribute them around the burrata. Drizzle the tomatoes and burrata generously with olive oil and balsamic vinegar and sprinkle with kosher salt and pepper. Scatter the basil on the salads, sprinkle with fleur de sel, and serve with Garlic Toasts.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Slice the baguette diagonally into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Depending on the size of the baguette, you should get 20 to 25 slices.
• Lay the slices in one layer on a baking sheet, brush each with olive oil, and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Bake the toasts for 15 to 20 minutes, until they are browned and crisp. As soon as they are cool enough to handle, rub one side of the toasts with the cut side of the garlic. Serve at room temperature.

GRILLED TOMATOES AND BURRATA

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. It's best to use a grill basket, but if you don't have one, oil the grill grates.
• Cut the tomatoes in half crosswise and brush with 4 tablespoons of the olive oil. Place the tomatoes cut-side down on the grill (or grill basket) and cook until the tomatoes are softened and charred, about 4 minutes. Flip once and continue to cook for 1 to 2 minutes more. The tomatoes should be tender.
• Place the tomatoes in a serving bowl cut-side up and season generously with salt and pepper. Place the burrata in the center of the tomatoes and cut in half. Garnish with the basil and oregano. Sprinkle with lemon zest and drizzle with the balsamic glaze and remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Serve with crusty bread.

SWEET-AND-SPICY GRILLED VEGETABLES WITH BURRATA

Steps:

• Make the sauce: Put raisins or apricots in a small heatproof bowl. In a small saucepan, combine vinegar, honey, fish sauce or colatura (if using), red-pepper flakes and salt. Bring to a boil, then let simmer until the mixture reduces slightly, about 3 minutes. Immediately pour over the raisins and let cool. Taste and stir in a little more honey if the sauce is too harsh. (Sauce can be made up to 1 week ahead and stored in the refrigerator.)
• Prepare the vegetables: Oil the grill grate and light the grill. Have a serving platter at the ready.
• Grill the peppers, zucchini, eggplant and corn directly on the grate, in batches if necessary, and turning them as needed. Move them around the grate so they cook evenly. Cook until they are lightly charred, watching them carefully, 5 to 12 minutes, depending on the vegetable.
• To grill the mushrooms and asparagus, place them in a grilling basket if you have one, or put directly on the grill. (Arrange the asparagus perpendicular to the grates so they don't fall through.) Grill, turning as needed, until charred all over, 6 to 10 minutes. Grill the cherry tomatoes, using the vine as a handle if possible, for 1 to 2 minutes, until they start to burst and char slightly. Transfer all the vegetables as they cook directly to the serving platter.
• Add the cheese to the platter next to the vegetables. Immediately drizzle everything with some of the sauce, stirring it up to get the raisins, and with olive oil. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt and pepper and scatter the herbs generously on top. Serve the extra sauce and the bread alongside for making crostini with some of the vegetables and more of the tangy sauce.
