Yes we can!

In the fresh-tomato euphoria at the local farmer's markets this time of year, it's easy to forget about the tomatoes we rely on the other 10 months of the year. Bittman recently visited a big "industrial" California tomato grower and a canner, and basically liked what he saw. I have to say that not all canned tomatoes are created equal, and I have grown a bit too fond of the pricy Solania San Marzanos at Costco. But even middling canned tomatoes are a remarkable and indispensable product. Now excuse me while I sauce these organic dry-farmed Early Girls and San Marzanos that I picked up in Berkeley today...
