When I thought to prepare this recipe of tomato tartare I decided to make it inspired by the recipe for the traditional beef steak tartare, but substituting the veal for chopped ripe tomatoes. married or small cubes, and maintaining the traditional dressing.
For this elaboration it is not worth using greenhouse tomatoes or tomatoes of the ball or pear varieties, perfect for frying and making sauces or tomato fritters, or for use in gazpachos and salmorejos, but we need a good variety of salad tomatoes, such as pink tomatoes from Barbastro or those from the Sierra de Aracena. If you can’t get good fresh tomatoes, you can make the recipe with whole canned natural tomatoes.
After peeling well and chopping the tomatoes into small pieces, we will mix them with other ingredients and dress them with a homemade sauce, based on egg yolk, mustard and some seasoningsthus achieving an intense flavor and an appearance and texture very similar to that of the dish made with meat minced with a knife.
We start by peeling the tomatoes, to keep only their pulp. Then we cut them into slices, each one into strips and each strip into squares. We leave all the tomato portions on a strainer, to remove all tomato water and seeds, staying with the meat or pulp. If you use canned tomato, cut it into portions and dry it well with absorbent kitchen paper.
Chop the capers, piparras and chives into small similar size servings to tomato pulp. Mix with the tomato trying not to move too much so as not to damage the portions. We splash to taste. Let it rest while you prepare the sauce or dressing.
In a small bowl or bowl, combine the egg yolk with the mustard, Worcestershire or Perrins sauce, and Tabasco, beating well. We add a drizzle of olive oil and a few drops of oil. We distribute the sauce over the rest of the ingredients of the tomato tartare and let it integrate for five minutes.
With the help of a plating ring, we place the tomato tartare on a plate. We decorate the upper part to our liking with some green sprout, a slice of jalapeño and a few balls or pearls of oil. We bring to the table.
