A glut of tomatoes – whether bought or homegrown – is the perfect way to bring the edible joy of summer into your kitchen and onto your plate. These fantastic fruits are a great source of essential nutrients including antioxidants, lycopene, etc. Some studies suggest that eating lycopene-rich food may lower our risk of certain types of cancer, particularly cancers of the prostate, lung and stomach.
Make the most of these nutritious nightshades in all their juicy variety with delicious burrata – an Italian cheese made from unspun mozarella curds. Burrata has a soft, creamy centre and a firmer outer shell. We love to use tomatoes in all shades, sizes and colours. It’s an easy way to spruce up your plate and bring some colour to your tomato salad!
