Payoff Time

Despite being a bit overwhelmed by our harvest, we relish the first day of a given garden season when we can overlap slices of Brandywine, Cherokee Purple, Lillian’s Yellow Heirloom, Green Giant, and Kellogg’s Breakfast with fresh mozzarella cheese, drizzle with extra virgin olive oil, and top with some shredded basil leaves, a dusting of Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, and a few grinds of black pepper and call it lunch or dinner. Great tomatoes taste best when you eat them in their most basic, unadorned form. What makes the experience even more precious is the knowledge that the delicious, large-fruited heirlooms can be the most finicky in terms of consistent yield and flavor, as they seem to be the variety type most affected by cultural or seasonal conditions. If it’s a decent season, though, we quickly find that we are inundated with tomatoes.
