About the Book

In The Tomato: Riddles and Recipes, the second installment of the Riddles and Recipes series, the author takes you on an 80,000-year journey, tracing the tomato's path from Peru, Ecuador and Mesoamerica to dinner plates around the world. Discover the tomato's origin story, tomato lore, solve amusing tomato riddles, and experiment with tested recipes gathered from eleven leading global tomato producing and consuming countries. This unique compilation, a product of the author's extensive travels and experiences in tomato-loving cultures worldwide, will redefine your perception of this unique culinary treasure. The tomato's reputation has undergone a significant transformation over the centuries. Once regarded as toxic by Europeans and early US colonists and even used as a decorative plant in 19th-century English gardens, the tomato now occupies a prominent place in our culinary repertoire. From salads, sauces, condiments, salsas, and pastas to rice dishes, stews and soups, The Tomato: Riddles and Recipes, showcases the tomato's versatility in an array of tested preparations. Acknowledging its varying sizes, shapes, and colors, this book celebrates the tomato as a global culinary staple, cultivated across every continent, including Antarctica!

About the Author :
J.P. Cross is a retired professor, celebrated author, and self-certified master chef. His work and travel to over 72 countries cultivated his love for cooking and collecting recipes. His passion for tomatoes, which he developed growing up in Vermont and later while living in Europe led to the creation of his book, The Tomato: Riddles and Recipes. When not traveling, sailing, or tending his gardens in New Haven, Vermont with his wife Kim, Cross spends his winters snowshoeing, reading, cooking, and planning for spring planting. A true culinary explorer, his recipes reflect his journey through the world of the tomato.
