“Truth is, I created this dish when my boss didn't believe me when I said fresh summer tomatoes cooked are still next level, not just the fresh ones. She ate her words and this eggless purgatory." - Chef Christian Gill
There is nothing better than summer tomatoes; That’s not just coming from a chef. It’s science.
Spiceology move:
Traditional purgatory has lightly steamed eggs nestled in the sauce. These tomatoes don't need no o***s (aka eggs). Tomatador, Garlic Ju**ie, and hand-crushed tomatoes off the vine reduced to a hearty dipping sauce, simple, sumptuous, mouth-watering. Add a side of soft bread for dipping, and a fresh shave of pecorino romano and the summer snackin' continues.
