This is the kind of recipe that belongs in the kitchen arsenal of everyone who isn’t a vegetarian. It’s more even more delicious than it sounds or looks, a dish which might make even a confirmed lover of the tropics wish for a cold wintry evening. I found it on Jamie Oliver‘s site. It’s basically the same recipe he used, even if my dish looks different, so I won’t repeat it by outlining the steps below as I usually do. Instead, I’ll document the sources of each of the non-staple ingredients I used.
- the tomatoes were ripe Maine hydroponic red cherry, from Backyard Farms, and a Mexican greenhouse trio of colors, from Trio, both purchased at Eataly
- the thyme was from Stokes Farm
- the rosemary was from Queens County Farm
- the fresh bay leaf was from West Side Market
- the dried Italian oregano was from Buon Italia
- the garlic was from Berried Treasures
- the substitute I used for Jamie’s Cumberland sausage were links of Italian sweet sausage from Tamarack Hollow Farm
- the wine was an Italian red, Brecciarolo Velenosi Rosso Piceno Superiori 2011
