2nd Serving, Respecting the Ingredients






I got these tomatoes from my regular purveyor.  Was probably picked within this week from down under.  I remember reading that tomatoes lose their flavours once refrigerated.  I kept them on  my fruit bowl, gave a light wash, sliced it, tossed with some Maldon and baby basil leaves, a drizzle of olive oil, a twist on the pepper mill.. You get this sweet and contrasting bright and earthy tomato taste punctuated by the salt and basil, pulled together by the olive oil! Mother Nature's gifts.
