We already discussed what to do if you have a surplus of basil from you garden (Basil Infused Oil!). But what about tomatoes?? When we grew tomatoes at our old house, most of them never made it into the house because I had a habit of eating them directly off the vine. Oooops. If I was lucky, some made it into salads like this one and a delicious goat cheese pasta dish like this one.
And then there was tomato butter…
It’s sweet from the tomatoes and super buttery from….the butter!
It’s delicious on toasted bread and grilled fish/shrimp, and I imagine it would be amazing stirred into a pot of fresh pasta.
It’s basically an excuse to smear a whole lot of butter onto something. It’s full of tomatoes!
