New Jersey Supermarket Chain ‘Kings‘ in the face of competition from ‘Whole Foods‘ and a revamped ‘A&P‘ rebranded ‘Fresh’ is raising its game. Visiting their Verona store, which has now a warmer look, I found Elk, Wagyu (Kobe) Beef and more at the meat counter. The produce department has also become more innovative. I noticed yesterday that they carry Coeur de Boeuf (Beefheart) Jumbo Ribbed Tomatoes.
These were imported from Holland. Beefheart tomatoes are a different ‘animal’, they ripen from the inside out.
They were also found by Clotilde of Chocolate and Zucchini in Le Potager du Roi (the king’s vegetable garden) in Versailles.
Chef Christian Etienne in Avignon used some of these Coeur de Boeuf for his succulent yearly Summer Tomato Menu.
I illustrated this post with a photo courtesy of catofstripes.
