At 6AM Sunday mornings, on my way to the flea market, I listen to Lynne Rossetto Kasper host a show called "The Splendid Table" on WNYC. The show explores everything that is loved about food, sharing recipes, history, food science, and culture. I love listening to the show on the radio. Lynne has a gift of expressing her passion for good food through her word and I learn something new every time.

One morning, on Our Splendid Table, a caller asked about his garden tomatoes and Lynne gave him a simple recipe that is easy, quick and delicious. We make it often.

Of course, with the sweet tomatoes available this year, you can simply choose to wash them and eat them like a fruit. You will not be disappointed.
