On this episode, Zarela & Aarón contrast the tomato with its relative, the tomatillo. They invite their friend - and favorite tomato farmer - Tim Stark of Eckerton Hill Farm to join the conversation and explain how he grows his delicious produce. Tim weighs in on how the heirloom tomato landscape has evolved over the past two decades and the effects of farmer's markets on what customers want to eat. Plus, Zarela and Aarón share their processes for working with tomatoes and tomatillos in the kitchen.
