I wasn't always a tomato lover. In fact, I very clearly remember a time when I hated tomatoes. That was obviously before I was ever even close to brave enough to sample some from a garden... I still remember the first time I did sample a raw sliced tomato. It was salted and lightly peppered and delicious! Now, I can't get enough of them in the summer; a week won't go by without several caprese salads. This year I have 14 tomato plants in my garden, and large, heavy green fruit are tantalizing me - or probably more accurately, just simply making me drool.
I'm so excited about this month's menu because after such a long wait for the summer season, we finally get to highlight some of our favorite ingredients! Of course the ripe juicy tomato is one of them. Figs and raspberries are another! I'm so looking forward to it, are you?
