ReplyDeleteWell, I usually buy 'roma' tomatoes + the 'globe', 'pear' and 'plum' varieties here. The kind that were available in India used to be quite sour with a very thin skin and lots of juicy pulp inside, perfect for Indian cooking.
I am so much interested to try and test the other heirloom varieties of tomatoes lately in my cooking, such as the 'ribbed', 'beefsteak', 'oxheart' and 'bell pepper' varieties.
I would love to win the Racheal Ray cast Iron pot. Looks gorgeous!
Hey, that's wonderful! Really tomatoes are such an integral part of any cuisine...I buy plum and roma tomatoes regularly and would love to get my hands on beefsteak tomatoes and heirloom tomatoes :) I hope I win the white casserole, as I do not have one now!
ReplyDeleteI hate to admit it, but I'm not a huge tomato fan. I can't stand when there's chunks of them in my food! If I have to buy tomatoes, I'll just grab the regular Roma kind. As for other types, I guess I would try cherry tomatoes (it's been awhile since I've tried these) and maybe grape tomatoes.
ReplyDeleteI would pick the Le Creuset casserole dish!

What a wonderful thing to do, Indo! Being a tomato lover, your question is totally up my alley!
ReplyDeleteI love to buy plum tomatoes, cherry tomatoes and grape tomatoes.
I adore and would love to get my hands on some yellow tomatoes (so sweet and juicy!). I also would love to have the yummy tomatoes from India (naatu thakkali) which are tangy and delicious. Plus, manathakkali (does that count?). I'd also like to grow heirloom tomatoes here.
The rectangular Le Creuset casserole looks great and would be my pick!
Hope all's well with you, dear Indo. Am going through a bit of personal and medical stuff so I've been out of the loop.
I usually buy grape or globes in winter and local tomatoes in season, preferably heirloom and Brandywine in particular. I'll use Roma for cooking other times. I'd love to be able to get New Jersey Beefsteaks and Big Boys but don't often find them in North Carolina.
ReplyDeleteIf I'm uber-lucky I'd like the LeCreuset white baker.
