Guest guest Posted September 10, 2006 Report Share Posted September 10, 2006 This is not raw... but very good. Tomato Harvest BreadInspired by Soup Makes the Meal, by Ken Haedrich Here is a toothsome quick bread for those first cool days of fall, a perfect marriage between fresh garden produce and your baking pan. This imaginative upside-down bread features a layer of juicy tomatoes and a cornmeal-laced batter with grated zucchini and fresh herbs. This clever recipe is a tasty way to use some of those tomatoes and zucchini your neighbors are trying to unload on you: Tomato Harvest Bread is fragrant, satisfying, and totally delicious, a perfect accompaniment to any soup or stew. INGREDIENTS 3 or 4 large ripe tomatoes, cored and sliced thinly1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened1 3/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour (sub sprouted flour here)3/4 cup finely ground yellow cornmeal2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder1 teaspoon sea salt1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves1 teaspoon fresh chopped marjoram leaves1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper2 large eggs1/2 cup olive oil3/4 cup rice milk 1 tablespoon raw sugar (have not tried honey or agae on this yet)1 cup grated zucchini 1. Preheat oven to 400F. Spread the butter evenly over the bottom and sides of a 9-inch by 13-inch baking pan. Arrange the tomato slices in neat overlapping rows. Bake 30 minutes, then remove from oven. 2. Meanwhile, make the batter: Into a large bowl, sift together the flour, cornmeal, baking powder and salt. Add herbs and pepper. In a separate bowl, place eggs, oil, milk, and sugar, whisking to combine, then stir in the zucchini. 3. When tomatoes are finished baking, make a well in the dry ingredients and add the liquid, stirring until just blended. Pour batter over tomatoes, spreading evenly with the back of a spoon. 4. Bake about 25 minutes, until golden brown, then immediately invert the bread over a baking sheet. Allow to cool slightly, then cut into squares and serve. Serves 12. Suzi What is a weed?
