BULL´S HEART TOMATO

Botanical Description:

The tomato "huevo de toro" (Solanum lycopersicum), also known as "bull's heart" in English, is a variety of tomato belonging to the Solanaceae family. This plant is an annual herb cultivated primarily for its edible fruit. Bull's heart tomatoes are notably large and irregularly shaped, with a thick, fleshy skin that ranges in color from deep red to more orange or yellow hues. Its fruits have a sweet and juicy flavor, with a perfect balance between acidity and sweetness.

Historical Description:

The tomato is native to South America, specifically the region now comprising Peru, Ecuador, and northern Chile. It was cultivated by ancient Mesoamerican civilizations such as the Aztecs and Incas long before the arrival of Europeans in the Americas. However, the first tomatoes that reached Europe through Spanish colonization in the 16th century didn't resemble much the ones we know today. Initially, Europeans distrusted the tomato because of its resemblance to other Solanaceae plants like belladonna, which was poisonous. However, over time, the tomato gained popularity in European cuisine, especially in Mediterranean cuisine, where it became a fundamental ingredient in dishes such as tomato sauce, salads, and sauces.

Gastronomic and Culinary Description:

The bull's heart tomato is highly appreciated in gastronomy for its excellent taste and fleshy texture. It is used in a wide variety of dishes, both raw and cooked, and is especially popular in salads, sauces, stews, and as a main ingredient in pizzas and sandwiches. Its large size makes it ideal for stuffing and oven-roasting, enhancing its natural sweetness and making it a delicious and satisfying main course. The versatility of the bull's heart tomato makes it an essential ingredient in Mediterranean cuisine, where it is combined with olive oil, garlic, basil, and other fresh ingredients to create fresh and flavorful dishes that celebrate simple and natural flavors.

Recipe: Bull's Heart Tomato and Mozzarella Salad:

Ingredients:

  • 2 large bull's heart tomatoes, sliced
  • 1 fresh mozzarella ball, sliced
  • Fresh basil leaves
  • Extra virgin olive oil
  • Balsamic vinegar
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

  1. On a large plate, alternate slices of tomato and mozzarella.
  2. Place some fresh basil leaves between the layers of tomato and mozzarella.
  3. Generously drizzle with extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
  4. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Serve the salad as a side dish or as a main course along with fresh bread.

This simple and delicious salad highlights the freshness and natural flavor of the bull's heart tomato, combined with the smoothness of mozzarella and the fresh aroma of basil. It is a perfect dish to enjoy at any time of the year, whether as a light lunch or as a refreshing accompaniment to dinner.
