Tomatoes | Let's Dish...

I've concluded that most people eat with their eyes as do i. Before me sat a bowl of salsa, some green "stuff", sliced up white thangs with purple skin, empty plates, and curious onlookers from a distance waiting to see if they're going to enjoy what i put together. Intuition tells me that plating design holds lots of promise for getting people to eat things they've never tried before; especially a raw dish. Today's Fresh Farm Farmer's Market presentation featured TOMATOES -the whole lot of 'em. This fruit variety comes in many forms and has cute names to match! Brandywine, Green Zebra, Cherokee Chocolate, Green Grape, and Mortgage Lifter are just a few of the heirloom varieties. Now doesn't that make you just want to buy some or at least google 'em? Cherokee Chocolate!

My personal best has everything to do with color, texture, and flavor. The brilliant Green Zebra!


 Reason #35 why i love heirloom tomatoes. Vibrant. All that color is responsible for revitalizing your cells in so many ways.

Like most fruits and veggies (in its raw form), tomatoes come equipped with loads of nutrients some of which is responsible for preventing cancer from forming in your body. And you can enjoy them in many different applications from purees to chunks in salads or by itself. The purpose for today's demo was to showcase how customers can purchase farm goods and create easy recipes at home. And of course give them lessons on how and why eating healthy foods is best. Well i threw that part in there! It's my job. So for the Fresh Farm Farmer's Market food demo i prepared fennel tomato salsa on top of thinly sliced aubergine bites with green tomato and mint puree and balsamic vinaigrette. I get pure pleasure out of feeding people. More specifically i get pure pleasure out of feeding people life on a plate!








Come 'n get 'em...
