Some people might enjoy eating fruits and vegetables, while the rest of them might want to puke out, once they’re putting the veggies into their mouth!

Well, if you’re happened to be one of them that have a crush on the fruits and vegetables, especially the tomatoes, then you must keep on reading the article…

For your information, the tomato is an herbaceous and it belongs to nightshade family. Some of its close cousins are potatoes (No wonder it has the words, “-tatoes” as well), eggplants and capsicum (chili pepper).


Do you know that tomato plants are originated from South America. Believe it or not, tomato has more than 7,500 of different varieties. According to the United Nation Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) latest statistic, there are more than 140 million tons of tomatoes have been produced and consumed in year 2008!

Honestly, it’s always good to grow our own tomatoes plants, as we don’t have to worry about the possibility of the pesticides will cause some harmful side-effect to our health! However, if you unable to grow it yourself, then it’s wise to choose the finest and pesticides free tomatoes from the well-recognized tomatoes growers. After all, the organic tomatoes cost are very reasonable and we can afford to buy it!



Below here is some of the most common varieties of tomatoes, have a closer look on it:


• Beefsteak tomatoes (It’s the largest version of the tomato)
• Large tomatoes (The normal size of the tomato)
• Medium sized tomatoes
• Grape sized tomatoes
• Cocktail tomatoes (It’s the smallest version of the normal tomato)

By the way, I included a tomato jam recipe and hope you’ll love it!

The Tomato Jam Recipe:

Ingredients:

1. 1 pound of good ripe tomatoes (You have to core and chop it precisely!)
2. ¾ cup sugar (You’d better use the brown sugar for healthy lifestyle)
3. 1 tablespoon of limejuice
4. ½ tablespoon of fresh minced ginger
5. ½ teaspoon cumin
6. 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
7. 1/8 teaspoon cloves
8. ½ teaspoon salt

The making process:

First of all, you have to combine the ingredients into a heavy medium saucepan. Boil it over with a medium heat and stir it continuously.

Then, you should reduce the heat; stir the mixture until it has becoming a thick jam.

Lastly, place it into the refrigerator and spread it on wholemeal breads, crackers or any foods you want!

Don’t forget to enjoy the tasty tomato jam with your loved ones, friends and colleagues.
