    Grilled Chicken Mushroom Toast

    This is some dummy copy. You’re not really supposed to read this dummy copy, it is just a place holder for people who need some type to visualize what the actual copy might look like if it were real content.

    If you want to read, I might suggest a good book, perhaps Hemingway or Melville. That’s why they call it, the dummy copy. This, of course, is not the real copy for this entry. Rest assured, the words will expand the concept. With clarity. Conviction. And a little wit.

    As a result of which, your entry will repay your efforts. Take your sales; simply put, they will rise. Likewise your credibility. There’s every chance your competitors will wish they’d placed this entry, not you. While your customers will have probably forgotten that your competitors even exist. Which brings us, by a somewhat circuitous route, to another small point, but one which we feel should be raised.

    Ingredients

    • 6 or 7 ripe tomatoes (about 1 1/2 lbs)

    • 2 cloves garlic, minced (about 2 teaspoons)

    • 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil

    • 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar

    • 1 baguette French bread or similar Italian bread

    Directions

    • Blanch and peel the tomatoes: Bring 2 quarts of water to a boil. As the water is heating make shallow cuts in a cross pattern at the tip ends of the tomatoes (this will make the tomatoes easier to peel).
    • Once the water is boiling, remove the pot from the heat. Put the tomatoes in the hot water and blanch for 1 minute.
    • Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C) with a rack in the top slot of the oven.
    • 3 Chop tomatoes, toss them with garlic, olive oil, vinegar, basil, salt and pepper: Finely chop the tomatoes and place them in a medium bowl. Mix in the minced garlic, 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil, and the balsamic vinegar.
    • Toast the baguette slices: Use a bread knife to slice the baguette on the diagonal making half-inch thick slices. Brush one side of each slice with olive oil (a pastry brush helps here) and place olive oil-side down on a baking sheet or roasting pan.
    • Serve toasted bread with tomato mixture: Arrange the toasted bread on a platter, olive oil side facing up (the olive oil will help create a temporary barrier keeping the bread from getting soggy from the chopped tomatoes).

    Ingredients

    • 1.2kg / 2.5 lb chuck beef

    • 1 tbsp salt

    • Black pepper

    • 3 tbsp olive oil , separated

    • 3 cloves garlic , minced

    • 1 onion , diced

    • 1 cup carrots , diced (Note 2)

    • 1 cup celery , diced (Note 2)

    • 800g / 28oz crushed canned tomatoes

    • 3 tbsp tomato paste

    • 2 beef bouillon cubes , crumbled (Note 3)

    • 1 cup / 250ml red wine , full bodied (like merlot, cabernet sauvignon), or sub with beef broth/stock

    • 1 1/2 cups / 375 ml water (Note 3)

    • 3/4 tsp dried thyme or 3 sprigs fresh thyme

    • 3 dried bay leaves

    Directions

    • Pat beef dry and sprinkle with salt and pepper
    • Sear Beef: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil over high heat in a heavy based pot. Add beef and sear each piece aggressively on all sides until very browned (3 – 5 minutes in total), then remove onto a plate.
    • Turn stove down to medium low and add remaining 2 tbsp of olive oil.
    • Soffrito: Add garlic and onion and sauté for 2 minutes. Then add the carrots and celery and sauté slowly for 5 minutes.
    • Add remaining Ragu ingredients and return the beef to the pot (including pooled juices). Turn the stove up and bring it to a simmer, then turn it down to low so it’s bubbling very very gently. (Note 7)
    • Slow cook: Cover the pot and let it cook for 2 hours or until beef is tender enough to shred. (Note 5 for slow cooker and pressure cooker).
    • Shred: Remove beef then coarsely shred with 2 forks. Return beef to the pot. Simmer for 30 minutes until sauce is reduced and thickened – beef will soften slightly more during this step.
    • Final season: Do a taste test and adjust the seasoning to your taste with salt and pepper. ALSO, add 1/2 tsp sugar if sauce is a bit sour for your taste (Note 6). Place the lid on and set aside until ready to serve (it’s even better the next day and freezes well for months!).
