You say tomato, I’ve got tomahtoes

August 27th, 2009 · by Elaine Johnson · 4 Comments · From the Editor

Local food blogger Kristin McCann put me out of my tasteless tomato-induced misery by dropping by a bag of assorted varieties plucked fresh from her garden.

Delicious — especially the sweet yellow tomatoes, which I had never tried before. All of them — yellow, cherry, plum and red tomatoes — went into my favorite summertime dish: diced tomatoes and mozzarella marinated in olive oil, red wine vinegar and garlic just long enough to cook up a pot of whole-wheat pasta. (Makes a great bruschetta topping, too.)
