    At Blue Duck Tavern in Washington, DC, chef Brian McBride
    serves side dishes separately from entrees so diners can
    mix and match. This side dish of pickled tomatoes is
    terrific with a simply grilled steak, but it's also
    delicious with plenty of crusty bread to sop up the
    ginger-and-cumin-scented tomato juices.

    In a medium saucepan, bring the vinegar, brown sugar and
    salt to a boil, stirring. Remove from the heat.

    In a medium skillet, heat the oil. Add the garlic, grated
    ginger, mustard seeds, black pepper, turmeric, ground
    cumin and cayenne pepper and cook over low heat until
    fragrant, about 2 minutes. Carefully pour the hot oil
    into the vinegar mixture.

    In a large heatproof bowl, combine the tomatoes, scallions
    and jalapeños. Stir in the hot pickling liquid and let
    stand at room temperature for 4 hours or refrigerate for
    8 hours, then serve.
