Tomatoes are one of the most common cooking ingredients and an easy plant to grow at home. They also taste substantially better than store-bought tomatoes. We found this handbook to have ten easy recipes (tomato pasta) and tips on storing and preserving your produce (tomato jam!). With this book, you’ll reach your gardening goals (and some chef goals, too) while embracing and enjoying each step of the journey.
