From gingery meatballs to a light pasta, dinners tap the tastes of summer freshness
Gingery meatballs in tomato sauce. Use any kind of meat you like for the meatballs: pork, turkey, chicken, beef or plant-based. Let’s get something out of the way: The best way to eat a summer tomato is to just eat it, thickly sliced and lightly showered with salt.
But if you’re going to eat tomatoes at just about every meal — very much my intention for the month of August — you should change up the repertoire a bit. I want recipes that put tomatoes to work, leveraging their distinct sweetness and acidic ping. Here are five tomato dinners that do just that, by grating or dicing them, roasting them, lightly sauteing them or simply cutting them up and drizzling them with a sparky vinaigrette.Most meatballs in tomato sauce rely on canned tomatoes for the kind of heady, garlicky recipe that’s typically spooned over spaghetti. But this recipe is made from briefly cooked fresh tomatoes for something lighter and brighter, seasoned with ginger, cilantro, lime juice and a dusting of cumin.
