Summer in Greece is totally amazing!
Nature and a great climate that give a great boost to every cultivation of veggies and fruits.
Tomato - The Queen of the Greek Summer!
Lots of tomatoes and herbs, visiting friends for a glass of wine in evenings or making big family lunches on Sundays, well there is a way to combine these two in a gift !
Found a few kilos of ripe tomatoes in a very good price
( almost 0.50 euro/kg but i had to take 3-4 kilos )
peeled their skin
( you know, put them in a hot water for 1 min approx.
and then directly to cold, its so easy to peel off their skin after that!)
and cooked slightly as a tomato sause with garlic, basil, thyme, extra virgin olive oil, and a pinch of salt!
Put the sauce in a sterilised vase,
a few drops of olive oil ( it works as a concervative )
close it and then turn it upside-down!
The rest is just imagination and love <3 !
Use whatever you have as a rapping paper
( I used a piece of a coffee sack )
ribbons, and some herbs for decoration and aroma !
et voila !
