      Title: Tomato-Basil Concasse
 Categories: Five, Vegetables, Herbs, Condiments
      Yield: 6 Appetiser
 
      8    Ripe Italian plum tomatoes;
           - skinned, diced
      1 bn Fresh basil leaves, julienne
      1 tb Quality EVOO
      3 cl Garlic; minced
           Salt & white pepper
 
  Accompaniment: Crostini or garlic bread rounds
  
  To peel the tomatoes: first use your paring knife to cut out
  the stem. Then slice a shallow X in the bottom (blossom)
  end. Using a slotted spoon, plunge the tomato into boiling
  water for a few seconds, then plunge it into a bowl of iced
  water. This will stop the tomato from cooking and further
  loosen the skin. Remove the cooled tomato and peel away the
  skin. This same technique can be used for ripe peaches.
  
  Combine the tomatoes, basil, olive oil, garlic and salt and
  pepper. Set aside for at least 10 minutes to allow flavors
  to blend. Spoon atop crostini and serve.
