Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 425 °F (about 220 °C).
  2. Cut a slice off the top of each tomato.
  3. Cross two strips of bacon and place the tomato on top, with the cut side facing up.
  4. Spread a little mustard on the cut part and sprinkle it with salt and one teaspoon of turbinado sugar.
  5. Bring the ends of the bacon to the center of the tomato and secure them with a toothpick.
  6. Place the tomatoes in a baking dish and bake for 20 minutes, or until the bacon looks well cooked.
  7. When removing them, garnish with a pickled onion skewered on the same toothpick. Serve hot.
