Recipe - Pomodori Con Luva

1 small Bunc dark grapes; (about 1
cup)
1 tablespoon Balsamic vinegar; if needed,
up to 2
1 cup Allpurpose flour and 1 cup
yellow
; cornmeal
Salt and freshly ground
black pepper to
; taste
1 tablespoon Finely chopped fresh
rosemary
6 Firm but almost ripe
tomatoes; cut or sliced up 1/2inch
; thick
Olive oil; as needed
2 Cloves garlic; smashed

Puree the grapes in a blender, then strain the juices into a bowl. Season
with balsamic vinegar if the grapes are too sweet. Combine the flour,
cornmeal, salt, pepper, and rosemary on a plate, mixing well. Dip the
tomato slices into the mixture, coating on both sides.

Pour a little olive oil into a large nonstick frying pan, just enough to
create a film on the bottom. Add the garlic and place over medium heat.
When the oil is hot, add the tomato slices and cook, turning once, until
golden on both sides, about 6 minutes total. Sprinkle with salt and pepper,
and using a spatula, transfer to a serving plate. Pour the grape juices
over hot tomatoes. Serve at once.

Note: You can make this with unripened tomatoes, too.
