Kumato Puttanesca Salad
Friday, March 22, 2024Inspiration for this simple salad comes from the flavours of a popular Neapolitan puttanesca sauce, which usually contains tomatoes, anchovies, garlic and capers. You can make this all year round with any kind of tomatoes you like, but it would make a really good summer salad when tomatoes and fresh herbs are in abundance.
Kumato tomato is a unique product of natural crossbreeding among several varieties, including some wild Mediterranean specimens. It is succulent, sweet and slightly tart and has a strong distinctive taste that changes as the tomato colour moves from green to brown to dark red.
