It’s harvest time, a time for celebrating the freshest of foods, and most especially great tomatoes. Tomatoes are fundamental to the skier diet. How can you have a burger without a flavorful juicy slice of tomato? The slice is still there, but does it have any taste? When was the last time you had a tomato that had any aroma or taste? Not one purchased in a grocery store, even one labeled “wine ripened;” mostly “water bombs.” Perhaps a tomato purchased in a farmer’s market? Maybe only buying heirloom tomatoes?
