Cherry tomato
The humble cherry tomato has been a staple in recipes for centuries. Its origins can be traced back to the ancient Aztecs, who used them in a variety of dishes.
The cherry tomato made its way to Europe in the 16th century, where it was initially grown as a ornamental plant. It wasn't until the 18th century that it began to be used in cooking.
One of the earliest recorded cherry tomato recipes is for a sauce, which was popular in Italy. This sauce was made by cooking the tomatoes with onions, garlic, and herbs.
