Coming back home after a long Jersey vacation of eating nothing but carbs... it's those good bakeries I tell ya... thankfully, we have nothing like it out here in Temecula. So excited to get back to cooking after receiving a CSA box of goodies yesterday.
While we were away some creatures ate a lot of our own garden tomoatoes... but thankfully my sis had a bag of small romas waiting for me.
Started the morning off by making marinara sauce... boiled the tomatoes until they float and "cracked", strained into our hand-crank peeler and seeder... sauteed the end sauce with fresh basil and a little olive oil for later's pasta. Yum!
With a bag of tomatillos from our farm, today I will make a Tomatillo Salsa Verde for later use.
