About me: I can't be the only person who starts thinking about what to cook next while I am doing the dishes for the meal I just finished eating ... right?

Favorite cookbook: I flirt with all of them. But I am a sucker for good writing and great pictures.

Favorite recipe: Pretty much any combo of good bread and great cheese.

Slow-Roasted Tomatoes from One Good Dish

A dish that could not be simpler to make, and absolutely delicious. Topped the cooled tomato with a room temperature slice of mozzarella drizzled with EVOO and some ribbons of basil. A real treat. read more >

The Silver Palate Cookbook

By Julee Rosso, Sheila Lukins, Michael McLaughlin
Workman Publishing Company - 1982

Like QS, I thought a full cup of oil was overkill so I did 1/4 cup of vinegar and 1/2 cup of oil, using the other ingredients as written in the recipe, and that worked well for me

I liked this a lot -- with the garlic dressing on the same page -- really nice for a summer side dish at a picnic or barbecue. Definitely needs that 24 hours in the fridge before serving for the flavors to soften and blend.
