Our good friend Mike is stopping in for lunch today. He is in the midst of a cross-country drive. He always brings with him his big laugh, shining eyes and rat-a-tat chatter about topics far and wide. We're all excited to see him.
We're slapping together sandwiches with cold cuts and picking up potato chips to go on the side. I decided to attempt a recreation of Red Sox Daddy's tomato salad from the other night. It's nothing revolutionary and this is not a "recipe" per se.
But, doesn't it look good? I'm letting the flavors marry a little before I take a taste. With these ingredients it's hard to go wrong. I think it's going to be delicious.
Here's what I used this morning:
4 ripe tomatoes from the farm: 2 large red and 2 small orange, cut into chunks
5 very small cloves of garlic from the farm, pressed (RSD chopped his)
8-10 smallish leaves of basil from the farm, chopped
salt and black pepper, to taste
my very best olive oil (Falconero), a very generous drizzle
