Simply Tomato: 100 Recipes for Enjoying Your Favorite Ingredient All Year Long

I always love Martha Holmberg’s books (Six Seasons is a favorite) but an entire book on my favorite food is a dream. The recipes are clear, innovative and frankly, revelatory. I’m a decent cook but lack the imagination to think that a squeeze of lime or a tomato shrub ( easy, btw) would elevate a a dish or cocktail to new heights. Get this book now for the gardeners, farmers, cooks and tomato fans in your life.

My husband has a hugh garden and we have tons of tomatoes. This cook book is so very helpful. I have learned so much about tomatoes: easy ways to freeze then and wonderful easy recipes!I never knew you could cook with the tomato leaves for extra tomato flavor! What is tomato water? The answer is in this book!Love, love, love this cook book!

Writing style of author is very readable. Tips and vkmmentaowiyhveachbrrcile are outstanding. Great gift for any gardener, whether a skilled cook or not...better still if they’re not!

My niece-in-law loved it.

Ok, but will only use a couple recipes, too many ingredients, I never head of.

I received my book in mint condition. Recipes are ok. I was looking for something with more fresh tomatoes or how to use fresh tomatoes, which this sadly lacked. There were some but very few in the 100 recipes listed. Most recipes were similar, not counting the tomatoes of course. Just not very imaginative. Good book for a beginner but not a seasoned cook.

Sometimes, Creative = Complicated… but not here! Martha lines up everything so nicely, including great “I never would have thought of that” combinations. Absolutely delish!

I love to grow and eat tomatoes and this is the BEST book I have ever found on the subject. I have about 800 cookbooks and quite a few of them are on tomatoes, but nothing like this one. A great variety of recipes from preserving to a multitude of styles for sides or mains.
