Heirloom Tomato and Chili Preserves
"This refrigerator pickle should be made a day ahead then savored like a tomato salad or as a sauce over fish.
Know your chilies. The tomatoes absorb the heat quickly so you should remove the inside seeds if your chilies are especially fiery.
The more colorful the tomatoes, the more beautiful your jars turn out.
Once you've eaten all of the vegetables, you can make a wonderful salad dressing by whisk in 1 tablespoon of dijon mustard and 2 tablespoons olive oil."

We love to cook and luckily our friends and family love to eat. Syl grew up in England and the Netherlands and that influence is in his recipes. We love love love Asian and Middle Eastern flavor profiles. I suspect I am a heat and spice addict.
