    Good morning. Wonderful video to watch while having my coffee. The recipes look so good. Who would have thought about putting tomatoes in a cake! I have to try that. Beautiful chickens, too. I have a small garden and tomatoes are the backbone. Thank you for another great video.

    I love nothing more than a fresh tomato. And the dr tells me not to eat them bc of arthritis/fibromyalgia. I am not sure I can do it, the farmers market in franklin, TN has some of the best, when mine are still growing. They look sooooooo delicious 😋 making copies of those recipes. Thx for sharing

    I bought some air..loom tomatoes from an Amish lady this past summer...they are very good flavored.
    And do u hav any apricot trees...and sell them.
    I won't buy them from markets or stores.they are missing the fruit flavor...the ripeness.
    Around here people just don't grow things like this.

      She may have been a little nervous on the camera by herself. I would go with the recipe posted. :)

    Good Day Allen : really enjoy your garden to table gathering. Love tomatoes but they don't love me . Any low acid heirloom varieties you can recommend, thanks

    • @PAllenSmith
      @PAllenSmith  5 років тому +1

      Pranita Lakeram San Marzano is a good one to start with. Sun Gold and Yellow Pear are two others with low acidity that are worth trying!

    It's too bad she didn't say how much flour in that chocolate tomato cake recipe. I would love to try the recipe...I'm thinking something like 2 cups. Anyone have the complete recipe?
