The Binny’s Demo Kitchen recipe for classic Spanish gazpacho is a cool, refreshing seasonal delight full of garden-fresh tomatoes, cucumber and peppers.

We have been playing around with all kinds of tomato recipes, including the cheese and mayo laden southern classic, tomato pie. It’s great but today we decided to throw together a goat cheese and tomato tart with ingredients we had on hand and must say we are pretty pleased with what we pulled out of the oven. It’s almost like we know what we’re doing.

The Demo Kitchen has eaten fried green tomatoes across the southern United States, and we love them. We teamed these improved FGTs with a creamy remoulade and a fresh corn relish that takes advantage of the summer’s bounty. By dressing the relish with balsamic vinegar and adding a little Parmigiano-Reggiano to the breading we created a kind of Charleston by way of Emilia-Romagna dish.

Here is a really simple dish to add to your midsummer grilling repertoire that takes no time and packs in loads of seasonal flavor. Firm, meaty swordfish is grilled over charcoal and smokey rosemary sprigs then dressed up with an explosively flavorful relish of garden-fresh tomatoes and olives.

This is a great starter for an Italian feast! This can be served as a build your own crostini buffet with each component in its own serving dish. Just add a fresh tomato and basil topping and you have several combinations to play with.
