We are all looking forward to seeing fragrant tomatoes at markets in Summer, aren’t we? Tomatoes in Winter are so tasteless that I don’t feel like using them in dishes. We can’t do without tomatoes, but we don’t want to feel that blandness in Winter, either. It’s not an insolvable problem! To make it tasty in all seasons is in our hands; we can do it either by preserving or by drying.

So it is a good idea to preserve them in Summer when they are still fresh and tasty.

Another great idea is to dry them. Look at these sun-dried tomatoes! Aren’t they so lovely?

Tell me what you would like to make with these?

Her love of cooking started as a little child by messing her mom's dishes up! Despite all her mom's effort to teach her how to cook, she was happy as an 'assistant'. What made her want to jump to an upper level was her dad's compliments for the first dish she made herself. Finally, her husband, who claims that ancient humans were stronger than we are today as their main food source was meat, helped her love cooking meat dishes and improving vegetable dishes to make them more edible for him!

    Mmmm, we buy sundried tomatoes all the time from the spice market in Fethiye. We use them in pasta dishes. That photograph is really pretty. Reminds me of the sundried tomatoes in Fethiye. In the UK, we had to buy them in jars with brine – not good and very expensive!

      I can imagine how beautiful they are in Fethiye too. And pasta with sun-dried tomatoes are fantastic! I sometimes prepare a sauce with sun-dried tomatoes and mince to serve on pasta.

    I love sun dried tomatoes with ventresca tuna (belly), olives, capers, green beans & hard boiled eggs – Scrumptious!

    I’ve been wanting to pick up a pkg of sun dried tomatoes to stuff in a chicken breast. Oh how I would love to take a scoop of those beauties!

      Chicken breast stuffed with sun dried tomatoes sounds like a great idea! Thanks!
