TOMATOES
extra fructose?
I had brown tomatoes at dinner tonight, and they were NOT rotten. They were Kumatoes–a hybrid developed in Spain. I noted they were a touch sweeter, but less exotic tasting than they appeared. But, I can’t resist a weird fruit or vegetable, so I tried them as a part of a Caprese Salad. Pretty, but forgettable. This next exhibit is all about Color as well; just make sure you don’t send pretty-but-forgettable work. Take a look…
