Summer's here, and the tomatoes are ripe. If I could, I'd fill a swimming pool with tomatoes and dive in.
Admit it: The more you think about it, the more that sounds like a good idea.
Because tomatoes are approaching the peak of their tomato-ness right now, I decided to celebrate everyone's favorite fruit-that-masquerades-as-a-vegetable by trying out a variety of ways to use them when they are fresh and at their peak.
