Home Grown Tomatoes
It's true what they say, you really can't beat home grown organic foods. So I always like calling to my Dad's farm when the tomatoes are in season. He has these growing inside near his pizza oven and they are so sweet and delicious.
You can tell a good tomato from a distance, as the rich vibrant tomato smell hits you.
The photos below show the tomatoes in various stages of readiness, from flowers, to green to red and ripe.
We always make nice tomato sauce for the pizza bases using these fresh tomatoes too, as you can't beat fresh local ingredients and it doesn't come more fresh or local than above.
So we go from tomatoes.....
To sauce...
To toppings....
To Ready for oven....
To pizza oven....
Watched closely by the boss (Dad)
To yummy pizza..
What does it look like from outside
This is how the pizza oven looks from outside. Dad designed it to look like an upside down Currach, which is a traditional Irish fishing boat.
What a View
Oh and check out the view from the pizza oven door too. It's pretty special.
The area itself is pretty special, as you can see from these photos.
Has your dad really got tomatoes ripened already? I must be doing something wrong!
Nah, those are photos from last year Deirdy, so don't fret, I'm sure your tomatoes are ticking along just fine! Sorry for the tardy reply by the way, shit's been hectic!
Thanks for including an image of the finished product this time. I appreciate it!
Ha ha ha, no problemo!!
Niceyyy, you have a nice source of tomatoes, and it is home grown which you'll be sure that it is very healthy and no any sprayed chemicals in it ᕙ(⇀‸↼‶)ᕗ. And a homemade pizza sauce? Now that's even cooler! The pizzas looks really yummy, seeing this made me crave for some ( ꈍᴗꈍ). And what a unique and big oven, the outside view is spectacular (人 •͈ᴗ•͈)
Thanks for the lovely comment. It's about as healthy as a pizza can be I suppose!
That is a really cool place! Looks like a lot of fun! Fresh tomatoes in their green house and everything, awesome!
Ya man, I must admit, it is a very special place and somewhere that I love to spend time.
