Grab Tomatoes While You Can

Tomato season is short. I’m talking about good tomatoes, that are really worth eating. I gorge myself on them during the summer months, so when they’ve disappeared from the market, I’m pretty well sated. I love sweet 100’s, which are the tiniest and sweetest tomatoes you can find. For a favorite, quickie dinner, I cut them in half, macerate them for 10 minutes or so, in olive oil and shallots, and pour the mixture over tortellini (from a package that takes 3 minutes to cook). Shave Reggiano parmesan over everything, and you’ll have a perfect late summer meal.
