Heirloom Tomatoes

August 24th, 2008 by Sheri Wetherell · 4 Comments · Print This Post

Heirloom tomatoes are worth their often-expensive price. Deep red, orange, yellow, green, black (dark purple red), these tomatoes always make the most beautiful arrangement. The best thing about heirlooms is they’re more meaty with less seeds, and much sweeter.

We drizzled ours with white truffle oil, a balsamic vinegar reduction, salt and pepper, and a bit of chopped basil.

A gorgeous and delicious kaleidoscope of color! It’s like sunshine on plate.
