- 1 28oz Can Peeled Tomatoes (drained) or 3 cups very ripe chopped tomatoes
- 3 tablespoon Olive Oil
- 2 tablespoon Red Wine Vinegar
- 4-5 Cloves Roasted Garlic
- 2 Pinches Kosher Salt
- ¼ teaspoon Fresh Cracked Pepper
- 1 tablespoon Fresh Tarragon
- 1 tablespoon Fresh Parsley
- ⅓ Cup Shallot chopped
Add all of the ingredients to the blender.
Blend on low to get everything chopped up, then increase the speed to medium-high. You are looking for the mixture to turn from red to more of a salmon color. You will see it when it happens. Don’t blend it too fine- we need to strain it next!
Put a fine mesh strainer over a large bowl. Pour the blended tomato mixture into the strainer.
Place in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the mixture to chill and drain.
Serve cold over fish, pork or chicken. Enjoy!
The tomato coulis is really watery when it comes right out of the blender. You can use it in this state, but it will run all over the plate. When you drain it and chill the tomato coulis, it takes on more body and can be used more easily. Plus, the flavors are more concentrated.
Just as a side note, the juice that drains out of the tomato coulis is delicious. Pour it into a cup and enjoy.
