The ingredients are few and can be varied. For the tomato paste, I boiled tomato sauce and pur\u00e9ed it with a piece of celery, a shallot and a small carrot, all previously boiled, and then let it thicken and cool.
If you don’t have time you can use store-bought tomato paste, but choose one that is sweet and made from a mixture of vegetables, not just tomatoes, or the spread will be too acidic.<\/p>\n
You simply use an immersion blender to combine the tomato paste, the Nonno Nanni Fresco Spalmabile and a drizzle of flavoured olive oil. Once everything is blended into a smooth, uniform mixutre, season with salt and pepper.
The mustard oil (which I love) goes very well here, but you can easily substitute chilli oil or truffle oil.<\/p>\n
Remember to set aside two small pats of Nonno Nanni Formaggio Spalmabile to top the tomato spread because these will create a “cream effect” for the eyes and the mouth.<\/p>\n
Suggested uses: You can try garnishing it with salmon caviar and serving with small pieces of toast, like I did, but this spread is also perfect on bread adorned with lightly toasted walnuts, pine nuts or pumpkin seeds.<\/p>\n
You can use it on hard-boiled eggs, which is to die for!
But it also goes really well with shrimp, mantis shrimp or razor clams on the grill, or to fill vols-au-vent which you can serve decorated with rosettes of smoked salmon and chives!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
