    Plum Tomato Sauce with Noodles

    Copyright 1999, Fredric A. Byarm. All rights reserved.

    Ingredients:

    Olive oil
    12 plum tomatoes
    4 shallots, diced
    6 cloves garlic
    Kosher salt to taste
    Ground white pepper to taste
    1 cup white wine
    3 lemons, juiced
    1/4 lb. (or 1 stick) butter, cubed
    Cracked black pepper to taste

    Preparation:

    Remove the tops and dice 12 plum tomatoes. Place olive oil in a saucepan and add shallots and garlic; cook until shallots are translucent. Add white wine and lemon juice. Add salt and ground white pepper to taste. Bring to boil, reduce heat, let cook 3 minutes. Remove from heat, pour all ingredients into blender and puree. (This process may need to be done in steps so that blender doesn't overflow.) Strain pureed ingredients through chinoise, discard pulp and reserve broth. Add additional salt and cracked white and cracked black pepper to taste. Bring broth back up to at least 110 degrees. Place in a clean blender, add cubed butter with blender on high to emulsify, and season to taste.

    Chef's Note: Different from typical pasta sauce, this is bright in color and is good with cooked noodles, etc.

    Servings: 4
