Tomatoes – Fruit or Vegetable? Send us your vote. | Southern Cross ...
One of the wonderful aspects of living in Turkey is consuming fruit and vegetables from the land, and only when in season.* Tomatoes especially reflect forced growth and greenhouse conditions, and the plastic <a href="http://zhengxing.99mr.com/gongzhenxizhi/"><strong>超声吸脂减肥</strong></a> supermarket versions of this fruit/vegetable should be banned for use by anything other than still life paintings. Generous Mo Captain of our own Southern Cross Timer delivered bagfuls of tomatoes, eggplant and peppers from his family’s Kutahya garden last week.* The smell of the tomatoes quickly filled the kitchen and we sliced one open for pure, red, sweet bliss.* The next tomato was eaten just like <a href="http://zhengxing.99mr.com/yachimeibai/"><strong>烤瓷牙美容术</strong></a> a juicy apple and sprinkled with an unhealthy quantity of salt.* Within two days, we had consumed every tomato. It then became our mission to seek more at the local Bodrum Friday market, with success and assurance that these beauties will continue until mid-November when it’ll be time to break into all the tomato preserves until early next summer. Thank goodness garlic is available all year around. *Send us an email <a href="http://zhengxing.99mr.com/yaofuxizhi/"><strong>瘦腰</strong></a> as to whether you regard the tomato as a fruit or a vegetable, as well as your favorite seasonal tomato recipe. *The winner will receive a newsletter feature of their choice, our archive of local Bodrum tomato recipes (including the Cretan recipe for tomato jam), 10% off their next Blue Cruise, or all of the above.
