Winter Tomato Blues? Turn to Cherry Tomatoes

Turning to Cherry Tomatoes

By Michelle Fabio

If you’re out of a zone where tomatoes are in season or where this year’s crop isn’t living up to expectations, you may be lamenting the loss of your beloved tomatoes in your diet.

And although you may be used to heirlooms or Romas for different recipes, there’s another option.

The small one that can pack a flavor punch—the cherry tomato.

Cherry tomatoes are more widely available year-round as they produce and ripen throughout the year, even though, yes, the height of their season is in summer and early autumn just like their larger brethren.

But if you can find some of these little guys, don’t be afraid to pick up a bunch and experiment. Some types are sweeter while others are more acidic; with a just a little playing around you can figure out which would be best for your salads, which cook down well in a sauce, and which would go great on a homemade pizza.

There’s just no need to ever be without a tasty tomato, so do be creative.

    Lookin' good, Dad!  That's a nice healthy little plant and I look forward to checking on it every day.  Glad the weather was on your side and that you had help putting your plants in.  It's only a matter of time until you and Ms. Mary are enjoying those fried green tomatoes again!  

    Best to you all, and big PURRS to the Princess beauty! ^^

    Good morning Dad, those tomato plants are looking mighty fine in the ground. Now you can just mostly sit back and relax for a while and watch them boggers grow. Ken and I went to Target yesterday and got the last two Topsy Turvy  tomato containers and then on and picked up some tomatoeplants at Home Depot since they were in the same shopping center. I am anxious to see how that contraption grows tomatoes. I am optimistic but we shall see. We will give it out best shot LOL. No where in Anniston could we find anymore of those Topsy Turvy holders so that is the reason I grabbed them while I could. Have a nice restful day today along with Mary and princess. Helen
