How Sweet Is Your Morning Cereal?

How Sweet is Your Morning Cereal?

I go through breakfast phases. There will be weeks on end where I crave savory dishes like eggs and grain bowls, and other long stretches where I subsist solely on yogurt and berries with a little granola sprinkled on top. If you like granola or other morning cereals, there’s a chance you’re eating more sugar than you may realize.

burst tomato galette with corn and zucchini

I have a long history of spectacular tomato tart failures. There was the one that enchanted me on TV a decade ago, with a parmesan crust, bacon, fine breadcrumbs and roasted garlic, that — several hours of work later — ended up tasting metallic and clashy against the acidic tomatoes. There was the tomato tarte tatin flop from a fancy French chef, for which I have only myself to blame. And two summers ago, there was an heirloom tomato galette, with colors like a rainbow, that fell apart before we ate it. The problem more often than not is a basic one: tomatoes are very wet and tart crusts need to stay fairly dry. But this has never stopped me from trying again, and I’m glad, because it led me to this.

Sort of. This too spun from a disaster, a gnocchi failure last week that involved these same fixings. But we were so in love with the combination — lightly charred and slumped cherry tomatoes, sauteed zucchini, crunchy sweet corn, scallions and parmesan that I’ve become convinced it should be applied to everything this month from pasta to farro to omelets.
