Ginger Buttered Tomatoes

PREP: 10 MIN  |  COOKS: 10 MIN  |  SERVES: 4

This recipe is our homage to the warmth of August and the enchanting allure of our favorite tomato stalls at our local farmer’s market. Can you smell the tomatoes? Add luxurious butter (or ghee), ginger and scallions and pile onto toast for a quickie summer side dish. 

ingredients

  • tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1-2 tablespoons The Ginger People® Organic Minced Ginger
  • scallions, white and pale green parts finely chopped, dark green parts thinly sliced
  • 1-½ pounds tomatoes, cut into 1-inch pieces (about 4 cups)
  • tablespoons, plus 1-½ teaspoons low sodium soy sauce
  • Kosher salt to taste

directions

  1. Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat. 
  2. When butter stops foaming, add minced ginger and scallion whites and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute. 
  3. Add tomatoes and continue cooking, turning gently with a large spoon, until tomatoes are warmed through, about 2 minutes. 
  4. Add soy sauce and toss to combine. 
  5. Season with salt. Top with scallion greens. Serve over rice or on top of toasted sourdough.
