step by step... here it comes: SPRING! it's such a beautiful time. the sun shines longer, warming us all, supporting our growth to stretch out from the ground..and i love this time at the market...one of the best feelings is the first sight of a spring vegetable or fruit... at first glance, i have a longing in me to embrace it like a long lost friend...how was the flight & how have you been? don't worry, i don't ask it any questions but i do gather it in my stroller with such love & excitement that it's back in town! it also can sometimes feel like i am spotting celebrities.. but there names are fava bean, spring pea tendril & so on... i think you are getting the picture... they INSPIRE me! and that is what i am talking about mamas! lets get reinspired this spring with all that is being offered to us...as for these tomatoes, they are amazing on a little baking sheet with olive oil.. massage with your god given tools & LOVE...roast on 400 for 20 - 30 minutes... or more depending on what you want to do with them & how you want the texture etc... check on them every 15 or so minutes with a spatula (steel or wood please) & move them around.. let them get to know each other....and you can absolutely add a bit of salt before or after.... amazing with cippollini onions, cannelini beans, some bread & some quiet time...OR you can add them to any dish that needs crushed tomatoes from a can.. if it's a warm dish like meat or chicken.. roasted tomatoes are the best.. don't forget all those juices in the baking sheet. see you in the kitchenxxx
"...let them get to know each other...." I just love that!
