Podcasts about tomatoes

This dish became a house favorite before it ever had a name. In this episode, I'm sharing the story behind it and why I'm finally writing it down after years of making it from memory. I talk about how the idea started with something Marty ate constantly during a summer in Israel and how he asked me to recreate it at home. From there, it blended with one specific version of pan con tomate that we fell in love with in Barcelona, and over time it evolved into something somewhere in between that I call Tomato Water Salad.   This is part of a bigger trend for me right now, paying attention to the things that I make without a written recipe and capturing them so other people can cook them too, especially my teenagers as they learn their way around the kitchen. Tomato Water Salad is simple, fresh, deeply tomato-forward, and still the best tomato dish I make to this day.

Recently, Nadine Saylor has been creating a series of gas and oil cans featuring imagery of her local surroundings. These more "masculine" objects remind her of the things her grandfather had in his shed. In thinking about gender and how it relates to the objects with which we surround ourselves, she investigates what role gender plays in our world writ large. Assistant Professor of Glass and Sculpture at University of Nebraska, Kearney, Saylor is originally from Hershey, Pennsylvania. She received her BFA in Photography from the University of the Arts in Philadelphia and her MFA in Glass from Alfred University in upstate New York. Since then, she has taught at Bowling Green State University in Ohio, Harrisburg Area Community College in Pennsylvania, and at Southern Illinois University in Carbondale. In addition to teaching at the collegiate level, she has taught many workshops internationally including The Studio at the Corning Museum of Glass and Penland School of Craft in North Carolina. She has also given demonstrations nationally and lectured internationally. Saylor has exhibited in many exhibitions across the country including the Cafesjian Art Trust, in Shoreview, MN, Toyama's International Glass Exhibition 2024 in Japan and has shown at SOFA Chicago. She recently completed a commission of two works Carrie Oilcan and Copper Kettle Nebraska for the Federal Reserve Board Gallery to be on display in Washington, DC, and to compliment her works commemorating American industry that were purchased in 2024. Derivative of her childhood, Saylor's works are instilled with love of Americana and history along with an interest in the stories behind the objects, the places, and the lives they have touched.  For example, Saylor's series of pincushions began with the familiar Tomato and Strawberry forms. In researching the history of these objects, the artist learned the pincushion was placed on the mantle to ward off evil spirits. When tomatoes were out of season, women made them out of fabric and used them as voodoo dolls. "I enjoy these kinds of historical narratives and use them as a vantage point in my work," she says. Imagery tells a story on the surface of many Saylor works. For example, Foggy Morning in the Black Swamp is a replica of an antique coffee pot she found in an antique store. The imagery on the surface is inspired by the artist's bike rides on the old railroad trail bike path through the Black Swamp.  She states: "My surroundings continue to affect the imagery on my glass as I lived on a farm in Southern Illinois with an array of chickens, goats and horses. This nostalgic life took me back to traveling to my grandmother's house in the countryside of rural Pennsylvania. Not only does my current rural life in Nebraska play a part in my glasswork, but I am also interested in the memories sparked by certain objects and what roles they play in our lives."

Today I cover 10 edible plants you can grow in your garden.  All of them are highly pest resistant, nutrient dense, great to eat and I will bet you haven’t even heard of at least half of them.  And for another bonus all but one are perennial. Gardening season is just ahead of use and everyone will be planting the usual suspects.  Tomatoes, peppers, egg plants, squash, beans and many other well knowns will soon be all over America’s gardens and tables but these 10 all deserve consideration.  Many of these are actually wild plants, others basically wild with just … Continue reading →

Watch the best scene reading: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pk8FWeuRhTA A young man navigates the weeds of dating apps while tending to his makeshift compost pile. Get to know the writer: What is your screenplay about? My goal was to parellel new age dating with, kind of, urban farming or composting. With dating apps, intentions are often vague and can result in so many failed attempts. Often times you can find what you're looking for without even lookingm in a more natural way. I tried to equate that to something that actually happened to me, when tomatoes started growing out of my own compost pile. Seemed like a fun little juxtaposition. What genres does your screenplay fall under? I guess romance and a little bit of comedy? I'd like to expand on this at some point and include more drama. Why should this screenplay be made into a movie? I think a lot of people would be able to relate given the oversaturation of dating apps and the dissociation that can accompany that, when the next person is just a swipe away. —— Subscribe to the podcast: Tweets by wildsoundpod https://www.instagram.com/wildsoundpod/ https://www.facebook.com/wildsoundpod

Tomato traders in Accra have confirmed that about 10 Ghanaian traders, one woman and nine men, were allegedly shot and burned by terrorists in Burkina Faso last Saturday.

Michael Okyere Baafi urges the government to invest in tomato farming locally to prevent Ghanaians from risking their lives in Burkina Faso. He also calls on the Ministries of Foreign Affairs, National Security, and Interior to have warned citizens about the dangers and recommends a parliamentary inquiry into the tragic attack that reportedly killed 10 Ghanaian traders last Saturday

Eric Osei Tuffour, National Chairman of the Tomato Traders and Transporters Association of Ghana, laments the lack of government attention to tomato farmers. He highlights the dangers faced by traders, including beheadings and planted bombs, stressing the urgent need for protection and support

Winter is here in the UK, so while Saul and Lucy hunker down, don layers and fire up the kettle more frequently than usual, what do their minds turn to in the garden? This is the perfect season for clearance of 2025 growth, for establishing new designs and for de-cluttering stores and greenhouses. Any hours that you can put into the garden now, will reward you hugely come spring and summer, when the jobs mount up. Quick - more tea and biscuits!Well well well - the weather has...…not improved! On what feels like one of the wettest years in recent memory Gardening (and all outdoor pursuits) has been a bit of a long slog. But the Talking Heads pair try to console each other with those gardening tasks they can get on with (or at least Saul is feeling smug about being in an office - little does he know Spring is on the horizon). So Wineberries, Pruning, Houseplants and jobs out of the rain are the order of the moment. Also as this comes out on Valentines Day, love is in the air for our rarer plants as Plant Heritage Launch the Wishlist, a matchmaking service for those who are looking for the lost and unloved. Instagram link:Lucy lucychamberlaingardensSaul plantsmansaulIntro and Outro music from https://filmmusic.io"Fireflies and Stardust" by Kevin MacLeod (https://incompetech.com)License: CC BY (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/)Support the show

You slice into a flawless tomato with glossy skin and bright red flesh, only for a letdown to follow. There is no sweetness, no acidity, just water and fiber. This small disappointment has become so common, many people assume that's just how tomatoes are now. China is tackling that exact issue by biotech, smart innovation and more.

Companion planting can feel confusing fast. Charts, rules, and exceptions make it hard to know what really works. But what if you already understand companion planting better than you think? The foods you naturally cook together often grow well together, too. In this episode, I share a simple way to think about companion planting by looking at familiar kitchen pairings. Tomatoes and basil. Onions and peppers. Carrots and celery. When you connect what belongs together on your plate with what thrives together in the garden, companion planting starts to feel intuitive instead of overwhelming. free download: The Beginner's Garden Resource Vault Get complimentary access to a library of printable charts, guides, and tools to help you grow food with less overwhelm.

What to expect when you eat a purple tomato.

The Real Reason You Keep Saying Yes When You Mean No - And What to Do About It   Many women spend decades being the reliable one — the helper, the fixer, the one who always says yes. Somewhere along the way, it can start to feel exhausting… and a little confusing. In this episode of Late Bloomer Living, I'm joined by returning guest Wendy Perrotti, a master-level certified coach, speaker, and author who helps women over 50 create what's next in their lives. Together, we explore why people pleasing isn't a personality flaw — it's a coping strategy shaped by culture, values, and a desire to feel safe and needed.   We talk about: Why overgiving often feels so hard to let go of How thought patterns keep people-pleasing in place What healthy boundaries actually look like (and why they don't have to feel harsh) Why midlife is such a powerful moment for reclaiming yourself How play and experimentation can gently guide reinvention Wendy also shares the story behind her new book, Keep the Tomato — a grown-up picture book for people pleasers — and how learning to “keep a few tomatoes for yourself” can change everything. If you've been feeling tired of always being the one who gives, this conversation offers clarity, compassion, and permission to begin choosing yourself again.

Welcome to this week's visit. This week, the Elders are going to bring you their thoughts on a host of different shows and movies. Hear out thoughts on Paradise and Starfleet Academy. Get reviews of The Running Man and Marty Supreme. And there's so much more.

Let's gather around and warm ourselves on the glow of David Waldman and Greg Dworkin's wit and punditry. We remain under the cloud of a continuing mass shooting, or perhaps the unofficial public execution of dissidents to the Trump regime. Tomato, tomahto. The official line was much less accurate to that but always has the benefit of coming out first and loudest. "The good guy had a gun, so he was asking for it." argument is wearing thin, as typical person-on-the-street Marjorie Taylor Greene can attest. Gops understand the huge difference between now and Jan 6, and that's in the deadliness of the polling. In this case, they are calling for an investigation and might not even destroy any evidence. What can be done to stop this? Thoughts and prayers can get you arrested, but interrupting thoughts and prayers might not get you indicted. Only the National Guard have enough firepower to show empathy. Democrats strongly call to restrain, reform, restrict and continue to apply alliteration until Republicans submit. They might pull some purse strings also, which might be of some help if those strings reached to Qatar. James Comer throws Trump a TACO lifeline. But Donald is already way ahead of him, throwing Kristi Noem under the bus, installing her un-botoxed twin Tom Holman, Zohran Mamdaning Tim Walz, and declaring victory/retreat. Meanwhile, Minnesota Governor contender Chris Madel throws some smoke bombs of his own and disappears.

This week on The Global Fresh Series, we take a wide-angle look at the forces reshaping the global fresh produce industry—from avocado boardroom power, with the blockbuster acquisition of Calavo Growers by Mission Produce, a deal that signals a new era of scale, vertical integration, and expansion into prepared foods. moves to unexpected environmental challenges influencing what ends up on our plates.
