How do you preserve the tomato harvest? We have been canning slow simmered tomato sauce and drying bite-sized cherry tomatoes. The oven roasted tomatoes with a little lemon juice, olive oil and thyme are destined for the freezer if any is left over after we slather it on a baguette with a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese.
What's growing in the garden is served at the table. This is the simplest description of living from the potager jardin. So the 'garden dictates the menu' recipe for today is Fresh Tomatillo Salsa. The recipe is in the first picture; that's it- tomatillos, a tomato, purple peppers and jalapeños. Well almost, I also added some salt, fresh cilantro and lime juice until it suited me. Served with blue tortilla chips it was gone within minutes.
