00:00Want to know what to do with all those summer tomatoes?
00:02Make tomato gravy.
00:03Start by finely chopping ripe tomatoes.
00:06Tomato gravy has to start with bacon fat.
00:08Surely you have that sitting on your counter.
00:09Add in a little bit of chopped Vidalia
00:11and cook that until it's soft.
00:12Add in a little flour to make a roux
00:14and let it cook for about a minute.
00:15Add in a little sprinkle of garlic powder
00:17and then go in with your tomatoes.
00:18The juice from the tomatoes is gonna come out
00:20and create the most delicious sauce.
00:21Stir in a little chicken broth.
00:22Now bring this up to a simmer and let them cook
00:24until those tomatoes are nice and soft.
00:26I also like to give them a little smash
00:28with a potato masher.
00:29Gotta season generously with some salt and pepper.
00:32Cover it and let it simmer for about five minutes.
00:34Then look at that velvety goodness.
00:36Add in a tablespoon of butter.
00:38Turn off the heat and let it melt.
00:40But Nicole, what do we do with tomato gravy?
00:42Let me show you.
00:43Spoon it over hot buttery biscuits.
00:45It's delicious over both roasted chicken and rice.
00:48For my favorite way, over some southern grits.
00:52It's juicy, it's naturally sweet,
00:54but it's savory at the same time.
00:56A little buttery finish.
00:57It's a perfect bite of summer.
00:59No другой.
