for Appoggiatura, Arnie and Mark



Left to right: Sungold cherry tomatoes, assorted heirloom grape and cherry tomatoes, assorted heirloom tomatoes (Plum Yellow, San Marzano, Persimmon, Red Zebra)

Tonight will be a mini tomato dinner. I had initially planned for Tuesday but a casual inspection this morning revealed that a couple of toms had ripened a bit while in the fridge. That, or they’ve softened considerably. All the more reason why I should eat them as soon as possible.

Heirloom tomato salad, corn flan

Fettucine with Sungold tomatoes, garlic and bush basil

Pan-roasted monkfish, Tuscan long beans (long beans and tomatoes briefly sautéed in olive oil with a bit of garlic)

Watermelon and white peach salad

If I had more time, I would have candied some Sungold toms and served that with the fruit salad for dessert. Depending on tonight’s weffort, I might do another tomato dinner in a couple of weeks.

Check back later for pix and recipes.
