shit my dad likes: tomato dressing

so, to put it simply, my dad is quite popular amongst my friends in part for his humor and wit - but especially for his tendency towards trends and obsessions. he loves to follow the hipshit in gq and esquire - and reads his monthly issues like they're the fucking bible, in fact, he was reading quotes from gq at the dinner table this very evening as we noshed on one of his favorite obsessions of 2k9: tomato dressing. i mean "the best fucking tomato dressing". my dad doesn't fuck around.

so to commence the inaugural post of this fantastic blog idea i give you.....................


THE BEST FUCKING TOMATO DRESSING IN THE WORLD
(i.e. tom colicchio's roasted tomato dressing)

this current obsession stems from two previous obsessions worth mentioning those being
1) tom colicchio
2) tomatoes

he likes things starting with TOM apparently.

anyways this summer my dad grew tomatoes on our deck while simultaneously obsessing over how cool tom colicchio is and what a badass chef he can be, that he went out and bought tom colicchio's cook book.

in this cook book is a fantastic recipe for roasted tomato dressing that he not only made - but yes, obsessed over. he put it on everything. i'm talking salad. cheese. tomatoes. saladddddddddddd. salad. salad. etc. in fact, dad loves this shit so much that he makes it every week or two and keeps it stocked in the fridge so he can have his tomato salad EVERYDAY FOR LUNCH AND DINNER!!!!!!!!! he's even given it to my out-of-town friends starscream prefacing it as "the best fucking dressing in the world" because "i don't fuck around".

here's the latest batch, and as julia child likes to put it, bon appetite!

labeled salad dressing tupperware

mmm mm good.

contact me if you're interested in the recipe, it's quite good.
