This is easily the most beautiful thing I've ever cooked. (This is the stock photo, not mine--I think mine looked even prettier!):http://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2014/08/tomato-tart-from-the-beekman-1802-heirloom-vegetable-cookbook.htmlThe flavors were fantastic but I didn't let it cook long enough--probably needed another 5-10 minutes on the lower rack. It was a great way to use an abundance of CSA tomatoes. Very easy and quick to make, too.
Our tomatoes are in and they are fantastic. The sungolds are my favorite. They are delicious for just snacking on. We also have better boys and lemon boys. My guy has caught the vegetable gardening bug and is already planning raised beds and growing greens this winter. He has also started watching homesteading videos and I have been regaling him with Rio tales!Next year, I want to grow eggplant too.
Oh God...A friend came and helped pick some tomatoes yesterday, took home a small laundry basket full. I have about 4 laundry baskets in the kitchen to deal with. Yesterday dh made salsa, chili sauce the day before. The freezer needs to get reorganized so I can stuff more in.Yesterday I watched a Wilderstead video about canning stewed tomatoes. I always thought it was too risky but this guy made it look easy so I'm going to try it. So much less plastic and easier storage for soup and stuff this winter. Jan, he might like the Wilderstead guy. He was folksy and cute, like you kind of expect a homesteader to be.Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk
I will let him know. He has been watching Roots and Refuge. We found another one the other day which was also good. Always young, cute couples with little kids running around...
What were #1 and #2?Someone on twitter suggested putting slices of tomatoes on your rice as it cooks, whether in a rice cooker, pot, instant pot, etc. “You will thank me later,” he says.
