Heirloom Tomatoes

Summer is most definitely the best season at the Farmer’s Market. The stalls are packed with vegetables and fruits, the vegetables look bigger than earlier in the year, lots of berries, followed by the peaches and plums and then there are two of our favourites, heirloom tomatoes and basil!

Each tomato tastes different, some sweet, some slightly acidic, but all bursting with flavour. This is our favourite way to eat them, chopped, tossed with some olive oil, fresh basil and kosher salt.
