#10DaysofTailgate: Grilled Clash of the Seasons Panzanella


On this final day of #10DaysofTailgate, I decided to do a double-post to squeeze in just one more recipe with a thank you for another sponsor Mr. Bar-B-Q*. I was trying to create a good recipe to highlight their stainless steel mesh grill skillet...and I finally did it. Eureka!

Dear readers, enter the giveaway (below) to see if you can win a grill skillet, a grill cover with the collegiate team logo of your choosing, and a propane tank refill.

Panzanella is a Tuscan salad that I normally make during the summertime, showcasing sweet tomatoes from friends' gardens and our High Ground Organics CSA. I had seen 'grilled panzanella' on a menu somewhere and decided to create my own version with some late summer tomatoes and early autumn oyster mushrooms. Hence the 'clash of the seasons.' Summer produce collides with Autumn. The grill skillet allowed me to toast the bread cubes over a grill and add some amazing smoky flavor without mangling my bread cubes on skewers or losing them between the grill slats.


Ingredients 
  • 5 C cubed bread (I used a sourdough loaf)
  • 5 shallots, peeled and quartered lengthwise
  • 3 T fresh parsley, chopped
  • olive oil
  • freshly ground salt
  • 2 C oyster mushrooms
  • 1/2 C asparagus, chopped into 1/2" pieces
  • white balsamic vinegar
  • 1 C wild arugula leaves
  • 2 C tomatoes, cubed
Procedure
Preheat your grill.

In a large mixing bowl, toss the bread cubes, shallots, and parsley with salt and olive oil. In another mixing bowl, toss the oyster mushrooms and asparagus with salt and olive oil.

In your grill pan or skillet, grill the bread till it's nicely toasted. Remove the bread to a mixing bowl.


Spoon the mushrooms and asparagus into the skillet and grill till slightly softened. Spoon that mixture into the same bowl as the bread. Add in the tomatoes and arugula. toss to coat with a drizzle of olive oil and white balsamic vinegar. Serve immediately.

Quick Pickled Red Onions and Radishes

If you've been reading my blog for even a short amount of time, you probably know how much I love to pickle things. I was just telling a friend you can pickle - with vinegar - or you can ferment - with salt - for similar delicious effect. The latter has digestive benefits and I love to do that, but when I need that pop of sour flavor quickly, I whip up quick pickles that are ready in as little as a day or two. I've Pickled Blueberries , Pickled Asparagus , Pickled Cranberries , Pickled Pumpkin , and even Pickled Chard Stems ! This I did last night for an upcoming recipe challenge that requires I include radishes. Ummmm...of course I'm pickling them! Ingredients  makes 1 quart jar radishes, trimmed and sliced organic red onions, peeled and thinly sliced (I used a mandolin slicer) 3/4 C vinegar (I used white distilled vinegar) 3/4 C water 3 T organic granulated sugar 1 T salt (I used some grey sea salt) 6 to 8 grinds of black pepper Proce
