Tomatoes

For almost a month now, beefsteak tomatoes, the largest tomato of the family,  have been in abundance  in the street markets. They are truly enormous though they lack the sweetness of smaller varieties. Compared to Britain, the hotter weather,  intense June-July rain fall and a long sunny day, are all factors which greatly increase the speed at which plants in Korea grow.

A box costs between 5000-8000 Won (£2-50-£4)
