Head to The Shed this weekend to remind yourself of what a tomato is meant to taste like. Sun-warmed, perfectly ripe, and good enough to eat with nothing more than a little salt. After all, summer is the season for simple meals, so whether they’re sliced on sandwiches, tossed into salads, or just a handful of cherry tomatoes on the way out the door, now is the perfect time to add their simple, delicious beauty to your everyday. Talk to the growers, find your favorites, and remember why tomatoes are still worth the hype at the Dallas Farmers Market.
