Simply Tomato: 100 Recipes for Enjoying Your Favorite Ingredient All Year Long

What other garden produce inspires the same intensity of feeling as a tomato? For Martha Holmberg, nothing does, which is why she has written this attractive, imaginative collection of recipes.

Although she’s an avid home gardener, Holmberg, who co-wrote Six Seasons and Grains for Every Season with Joshua McFadden, says that grocery store tomatoes and canned tomatoes can do good work in the right situations. But she’s really most interested in taking your tomatoes places they may have not been before.

For instance:

• Tomato shrub
• Tomato-peach salad with lime-ginger dressing
• Clear tomato gazpacho
• Ravioli in brown-butter tomato sauce
• Tomatoes, shrimp, and chickpeas with feta and crunchy crumbs
• Tomato-gruyère galette with walnut crust

So if you want to make the most of those glorious weeks when nothing beats a locally grown tomato, here you are.
