redbird: closeup photo of an apricot (food)
( Sep. 7th, 2013 06:28 pm)
This summer we're getting a lot of our tomatoes from a farm stall that labels them by variety (rather than just having a big table labeled "heirloom tomatoes").

Based on that: Mortgage Lifter is a red-and-green tomato that [livejournal.com profile] cattitude, [personal profile] adrian_turtle, and I all liked; we got that two weeks ago. (I'm about 80% sure it was that rather than Brandywine, from a bit of looking at photos and descriptions.) It makes a good sandwich.

Last week, the merchant didn't have those, so we got some Paul Robesons, which also have red-and-green skin and flesh: having nothing else to go by, I went for a name I liked. And then we let them sit while we finished off a yellow tomato (also from the previous week) and ate cherry tomatoes. I had one for lunch today; it had gotten a little wrinkly, but was still quite good.

[Like the apple posts I do, this is mostly for my own reference.]
