Tomato Varieties
I'm a sucker for weird tomatoes. If its a funky color, a funky shape, or the tag says "heirloom" I have to try it.

Cherokee Purple Tomatoes: I found these at the Ferry Building Farmers' Market in San Francisco. They've got deep purple, almost black splotches that spread to the inside of the fruit as well. Cherokee Purple has reputation of being one of the rare tomatoes with both exceptional color and flavor. I chopped them with onions, cilantro, and a poblano pepper for a quick salsa to top some tacos. |
