      Tomato Frito, emulating my mother ❤

      When I got the box of organic tomatoes, I didn’t doubt what I was going to do with them. I remembered my mother when she used to make preserves every summer. Those days when the kitchen at home was full of tomatoes, glass jars, frying pans and pots where finally the jars filled with the preserves were made in a bain marie to keep and have on hand for the rest of the year.

      The other day I made my first fried tomato preserve and I couldn’t but try to remember every step she did since I never asked her and now it’s too late since she can barely speak😔. So, my poor memory was the only one that could take me by the hand in this cooking so that it would turn out as good as she did.

      It was a day full of emotions and memories as the pans went chup chup and the aroma that permeated my kitchen took me back to my childhood. I enjoyed it very much and it was delicious too.

      A good extra virgin olive oil, garlic, blanched and peeled tomatoes, salt and a little bit of sugar did the magic. We ate it with some baked potatoes. We left a couple of jars for another occasion. My husband told me it was the best fried tomato he had ever tasted☺.

      I like to think that my mother was with me that day❤.
