TORTELLINI SALAD WITH FRESH BASIL AND TOMATOES IN VINAIGRETTE



Tortellini Salad With Fresh Basil and Tomatoes in Vinaigrette image

I took an idea from Michael Chiarello on the Food Network, and tweaked it according to a favorite vinaigrette recipe of mine. This is a delightful main-dish salad on a hot summer night. Grill up some foccacia, brushed with a good olive oil like Frantoia or Ravida, and serve it in pie-shaped wedges alongside. Good eats!

Time 40m

Yield 12-14 1/2 cup servings, 12-16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/4 cup balsamic vinegar (good quality)
2 -3 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 cup extra virgin olive oil (basic, not the good stuff)
16 ounces dried cheese tortellini
1 -2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil (the good stuff)
2 (16 ounce) containers cherry tomatoes or 2 (16 ounce) containers campari tomatoes, quartered
8 -10 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
6 -8 scallions, sliced
1/3 cup fresh basil, torn

Steps:

  • For the Vinaigrette: Whir first five ingredients in blender until smooth. Drizzle thin stream of olive oil in until all is emulsified. Set aside.
  • Boil tortellini according to directions, drain, rinse in cold water to stop the cooking. Spread cooked pasta out on a jelly roll pan, drizzle with the good olive oil and sprinkle with pepper; stir up to coat tortellini with oil. This prevents the pasta from going glue-y when added to the rest of the salad ingredients. Set aside, covered with plastic wrap, at room temperature for up to a couple hours.
  • In a very large bowl, place quartered tomatoes, feta cheese crumbles, scallions, and pour about half the vinaigrette over, tossing gently. Refrigerate the tomato mixture until 2-3 hours before serving.
  • About 2-3 hours before serving, toss the oiled tortellini with the tomato mixture, add a bit more dressing, if you think it needs it. Refrigerate. Just before serving, toss the fresh basil with the tortellini-tomato mixture. Serve.
