    I keep a container of sauted cherry or pear tomatoes with garlic and olive oil in the fridge all summer long. So good on breads, in salads, on fish and chicken. So many good things!

    Tip* For garlic paste I prefer using a little ceramic ginger grater (available for less than $10 at any Asian market); it melts a whole clove into beautiful purée in seconds, with no chopping. I know the salt and side of knife on the cutting board method is the classic, but it’s too tedious for me. I also find cleanup is much less effort, to rinse the little ceramic dish, and it doesn’t leave my cutting board smelling/tasting like garlic.

    Silly question…Don’t the tomatoes hurt the seasoned cast iron finish? I am always afraid of cooking anything tomato/acidic in my cast iron pans….or have I been following a myth?

    • @Satans_lil_helper
      @Satans_lil_helper ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It's a myth. Tomato sauces tend to taste metallic if they've been cooked for longer than half an hour in cast iron. That's probably where the myth comes from.

    Hold on a second, a cast iron pan for tomatoes? Acidic tomatoes that can damage the seasoning on a cast iron pan? Enameled pots and pans, ok, but not straight up old school pans like that. Come on yall.

    Carol Fisch asked down below about the "cast iron vs. tomato/vinegar" situation. This was also my question! Anybody? It would be so great to open the world of my cast iron to tomatoes and acidic things, but every time I've done it, I have to go through the whole seasoning thing again. What are any of your experiences??

    Cherry tomatoes may have been popularized in cooking culture in the 1970s, but they have been around much longer than that. My grandfather grew up with them in his family garden (he was born in 1912) and they’ve been documented in literature since the 1600s.

    I see you are charring your cherries on a Lodge cast iron skillet. According to the Lodge's website, you should avoid cooking acidic foods on their cookware to quote their FAQ: "Will cooking acidic foods in cast iron hurt the seasoning?
    Unfortunately, it can. Highly acidic foods, like tomatoes, can break down the seasoning on cast iron. We recommend avoiding acidic foods or recipes with higher liquid contents for longer periods of time until the seasoning is well established." The seasoning on the skillet looks like it has been through hell after removing the cherries. Do you think this is a problem or you simply re-season the skillet.

    I always learned that you can't put tomatoes in a cast iron pan because the acidity will cause a chemical reaction that can make you really sick.

    Hi all! This youtube remains one of my all time favorites, loaded with useful tips, especially about taking the time to sear the tomatoes and the strips of pepper, using your fingers to tear the basil and the mozzarella, and about taking the time to "smear" the garlic with Kosher salt, and then there was the tip about adding anchovies (shush ...do not tell my wife that I do this!), which takes this recipe way , way up several notches. There is no better way to use the cherry tomatoes from the garden during the summer, IMO!BTW, be certain to note the suggestions posted by renniehorneman 1429 below about how to put this great recipe to use in many other ways beside a salad! Thanks for sharing this recipe with us, and a big thank you to the camera crew! This youtube was filmed expertly! And thanks for using the smellavision feature. The sweet smell of the fresh garlic came right into my living room! BTW, suggesting a wine pairing with this recipe would add even more value to this recipe, IMO! Happy Cooking!
