Why buy the Valencian Tomato Salad Basket, Cucumbers and Eggplants?
With these three varieties in the FrutaMare basket, we can prepare a lunch menu. Valencian tomatoes, besides being an ideal ingredient for a salad with cucumbers, can also be used to make sauces.
To make the most of the flavor and nutrients offered by tomatoes, it is important to always choose those that are at their best ripeness. When they are ready to eat, they release a scent called tomato plant and can be refrigerated in the fridge separated from other foods to prevent spoilage.
Cucumbers are damaged by excess water, so they should be kept dry and refrigerated wrapped in a kitchen towel, paper towel, or stored in a brown paper bag.
This helps to maintain condensation, preventing moisture, mold, and general deterioration. To avoid a bitter taste, peel them from the end attached to the plant towards the other end, so they release some water.
Eggplants are sensitive to climate changes, so it is advisable to refrigerate them. It is recommended to salt them before cooking to reduce moisture and bitter juices, making the pulp dense and absorb less oil.
If consuming fried eggplant, it is ideal to dip them in egg whites to avoid absorbing too much oil. If boiling them, a touch of vinegar can be added to the water to prevent them from darkening.
