Receta Summer Tomato Pie
Summer Tomato Pie
Most people hear the words "tomato pie" and think pizza, or maybe green tomato pie, but this is neither. It's an open pie heaped with slices of fresh, summer tomatoes. I found two tomato pies that I wanted to try, so here's Number One. The second is a double crust pie with a combination of tomatoes, cheddar and mayonnaise. You be the judge!
You will need:
- 1 (9-inch) frozen pie shell, thawed
- 3 large beefsteak tomatoes, cut into 1/2" thick slices
- Kosher Salt for sprinkling
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- 1 cup grated Gruyere cheese
- 1 Tbsp. finely chopped fresh parsley
- 1 Tbsp. chopped fresh thyme
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
- Salt and Pepper
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Blind bake pie shell lined with foil and fill with beans or rice. Bake for 20 minutes. Let cool.
Sprinkle tomatoes with salt and drain on paper towel 10-15 minutes. Pat dry.
Spread mustard over the bottom of the shell and sprinkle with cheese. Arrange tomatoes over the cheese in one overlapping layer.
Bake until pastry is golden brown and tomatoes are very soft; 35-40 minutes. In a small bowl, stir together the parsley, thyme garlic and olive oil. Sprinkle the pie with this mixture while hot and spread out gently with the back of a spoon. Serve at room temperature.
