HEAR YE! Electra's Fresh Raw Dressing for BBQ meats.....

Summertime is the season for barbeques. Besides being smoked, smudged,juggling, and smiling, a cook needs to overcome a delicate point: the time between removing meats off the fire and serving them on each one's plate is enough to make them cold, dry and tasteless.
Here is Electra's antidote:

3-5 tomatoes, ripe and sweet.
1 big onion
1 bunch parsley
salt, pepper
2 teaspoons mustard (paste, not powder)

Grate tomatoes and onion in the cheese grater or blender, add parsley finely chopped, salt, pepper, and mustar. They all make a raw "sauce" which goes by the side of the BBQ. A big deep plastic tray with a water-tight lid is used to place the meats in as soon as they come out of the fire. Immediately pour a big spoonful of sauce over each piece, and when the batch is in the tray, cover well and turn it over a few times. Keep the meats in there and serve them on the plates when they (people and food) are all ready. It is practically fat free, delicious, and keeps the meats warm and tender. Even without salt, for those on diet, it enhances the taste.

If you wonder about the name, Electra is my mother-in-law, the best household scientist/artist/juggler I have ever known. To her health!!
