Salt and Pepper Tofu from NYT Cooking. Coating the tofu in corn starch was messy, and I had my doubts about how it would crisp up when fried, but it worked very well. Simple, tasty. This gets a 4.

Halloween season is upon us! Just about everything in this recipe came from our garden. Our tomatoes are still slow to ripen, but hopefully that means we can enjoy them well into the fall. Heirloom Tomato Concassé with Wilted Swiss Chard from NYT Cooking. We thoroughly enjoyed this. The concassé complements the bitterness of the chard beautifully. We give this a 5.

Tomato Martini from the September 6, 2023 Denver Post. This seemed like a good idea—create a tomato water that captures all the goodness of garden fresh tomatoes, cucumber and Basil, and put it in a martini. The recipe does call for salt in the tomato water. Sadly, this was a total disappointment—too salty, and the tomato water was just unpleasant. We give this a 1, and would not recommend this recipe to anyone.
