We're making a cherry tomato dip with some labneh. In this small pot, I'm covering my tomato, garlic, salt and herbs with olive oil. All right. We've got oil bubblage, so I'm going to kill the heat. Pop this lid on top. I want to make sure it's sealed really tightly. Put a pan underneath it to catch any potential drips.
Tomatoes have a reputation for being a temperamental garden crop. They're thirsty, both fragile and heavy, and can be prone to disease. Cherry tomatoes, on the other hand, are widely considered among the easiest tomato variety to grow because of how efficiently (and abundantly) they go from flower to fruit. They ripen within about two months of planting and replenish themselves constantly.
