Thank you for the taste test. Very helpful. Sunrise Bumblebee is a tasty yellow cherry that does not usually crack when all of my other tomatoes do. Also, I prefer blue beech and jersey devil red sauce type tomatoes to the traditional Roma. The Striped Roman tomato was prolific this year for me and had good flavor in canned tomatoes.
You have just given me 2 new varieties to try! Seed shopping here I come. I thank you, but my husband does not 🤣
This is the first of your videos that I’ve watched. I like tomato taste testing ones like this. The only thing I’d like to see you do differently is to slice the tomatoes horizontally instead of vertically. When they are sliced horizontally you can see more of what the seed cavities look like. Thanks for giving your opinions on these varieties.
You are 100% right! I love your suggestion and will definitely do that. Thank you 🙂
Barry's crazy cherry is a prolific yellow tomato. Not pear shaped but it does have a unique point to it.
YES! they were very prolific! I forgot about them. Thank you!
Everyone of those tomatoes looked so good great video and thanks for sharing 👍
Thank you 🙂
For me Banana Legs shines when cooked. They make a fantastic sauce!
This is true!
How Great 😊 Thank you for sharing 🙏
😊♥️
What a great way to show off all the different kinds of tomatoes.
We were at a dinner last night and the hostess had a huge tray of every tomatoe you could imagine.
For the first time I got to try a Black Strawberry. Pops so nice in your mouth full of flavor. Omg the orange tomatoe Beratino one. Not sure if I got the name right lol all time favorite. Best tomatoe. Very meatie. Such a flavor you can only imagine. This tomatoe would work great to add in with other fruits like strawberries, blue berries. You wouldn't even know its a tomatoe. We took one of them home to get seeds to plant next year in our garden.
Thanks for taking the time to explain each tomatoe.
In my opinion this is one of your best videos. Absolutely kept me wanting to hear more. I feel like I could be an expert on tomatoes now lol
Always a pleasure ❤❤❤
I'm so glad you like it! ❤️❤️❤️
I love a good slicer but it amazes me how many varieties tomatoes come in!
You and me both!
Enjoyed your video!
Carotena, Jaunne Flamme or Kiss The Sky would be good alternative small tomatoes. They're all around the size of a goofball. Reinhard Kraft's Purple Sugar would be a smaller cherry type option to those.
Tondo Con Pizzo is an excellent red salad tomato.
I've grown and researched quite a lot of varieties. Mostly pink or red beefsteaks along with a few blacks, orange and bicolor.
*Earl's Faux, *Red Barn, *Lloyd E Fry, Wanda's Potato Top, *Wes, *Ed's Millinium, Goose Creek, Dona, Heidi, Chef's Choice (Orange), *Oncle Remi/Moya, *Lee's Sweet, *Lithium Sunset, *Bear Creek, *Alice's Dream, Stripes Of Syrnah, Magnum, Moya Noire, Cherokee Purple, Mikado Black, Ozark Sunrise, and Carolina Dusk are other options.
I grow in Midwestern US (Nebraska). Typically don't plant much of any long season. Primarily mid-season and base choices on flavor, plant characteristics and productivity.
If you or anyone has questions on these, let me know.
Thank you so much! Your comment has come at the perfect time. I just unpacked my seeds and am looking to buy seeds for next season!
Thank you for sharing your research and experience with me ❤️
I heard the sun sugar cherry tomato is one of the best and doesn’t crack/split.
Hello! I don't have sun sugar cherry, but I've put it on my seed list! I am going to grow Sungold and Amy's Sugar Gem. Have you grown either of these?
@@GardeningintheNorth I'm actually growing sungold this year for the first time! I haven't heard of the other one tho. What's it's flavor profile supposed to be?
I can't tell anything about the look when cut that way. Please cut across horizontally so we can see the cross cut!
I too am a fan of the chocolate cherry but I'm concerned I will run out of seed. I got mine from mckenzie at crappy tire a couple years ago and they have never sold it on their site and it wasnt available from the in store displays this year. I have seen it in a couple other seed co's but im worried it wont quite be the same.
I was considering the buratino and choco pear and whychees for next season so its good to get your recommendations.
If you were only going to grow 3 tomatoes, I would strongly suggest Buratino, juliet and chocolate cherry. My top 3 favourites. I believe my first chocolate cherry tomatoes came from baker creek.
Your Mortgage Lifter was really small compared to mine. I grew them up to 1-1/2 lbs. The ones I grew were really lobed. The taste was the same as you described. Not very tomatoey - very mild. Even though I saved seeds, I'll probably grow a different variety. Sungold is an excellent gold cherry tomato. I love yellow tomatoes. They're full of flavor in my opinion but less acidic. Edited to add that nobody in my house will eat a black tomato because they think the tomato is rotted. They won't try it.
In all honesty, my tomatoes could have been smaller due to the beds being new and not receiving a lot of TLC. We were in the process of selling our home and then moving and I really feel like they needed more than they got. I believe the seeds were either from Baker Creek or MI Gardener. Either way, like you I may not grow them this year due to there being so many others I want to grow! I too love the yellow ones and agree that they are full of flavour without the full acidity of the red ones. Your family is missing out, but that means more for you 😊
Golden Nugget is a great yellow cherry & it doesn’t ever seem to split in my garden.
Thank you! Where did you buy your seeds?
I actually got them through my local seed bank a few years ago.
5:08 black strawberry’s are beautiful.. I still haven’t tried them.. and I have varieties I still haven’t tried.. so opted to not buy them yet. Soo pretty though ♥️
There are so many varieties! It will take years to figure out exactly which ones will always be a part of my garden 😀
@@GardeningintheNorth I love growing.. or at least trying to grow heirlooms.. or new to me tomatoes! So many varieties.. not enough growing time or space 😆
I love the yellow pears too.. and mine split was lite too! I didn’t even grow them this year. My tomatoes are really late this year.. September tomatoes 😊.. I have another yellow cherry but don’t remember the variety. Mortgage lifter doesn’t impress me.. only a few fruits per plant.. and they seem to struggle .. I’ve tried them 3 years now and had same results.
September tomatoes are awesome! You won't be a sweaty mess when you pick them! If you remember the name of the yellow cherry, please let me know and I will try them! Maybe Sun Sugar?
@@GardeningintheNorth oh I’ll definitely share the name 🙂
I'm against compare a salsa with a slicer tomato in comparison as to eating as a snack.
Canning tomatoes for food processing isn't for snacks and can't be fairly judged for taste until used as it's been developed for its value.
As someone else had mentioned I slice tomatoes across the width not top to bottom.
I eat a lot of raw tomatoes as a side dish with a bit of oil and spice. Comparing all my tomatoes allows me to see which ones I like. The burantino is a meaty tomato that could be used for sauce. If I hadn't tried it raw, I wouldn't know that it is the TASTIEST tomato. Thank you my friend
I highly respect your response and yes I'm realizing it was my opinion and I have only ate 4 whole tomatoes in my life other than the grape sizes and smaller.
I've never bitten into a tomato thinking I would enjoy eating them only by itself but yeah love them in many dishes and salads and sandwiches from the grill..
Thornburg Terracotta I tried 4 times and enjoyed every bite and each time said WOW! I was surprised not to love it on Sandwiches other than having a dried out steakbuger that with the Terracotta was the juicy delight that truly surprised me..
Thorburns Terracotta 🤔 I don’t think I have ever tried that one! It’s now on my tomato wish list for next year. 😊
Could you please confirm the name of the long yellow tomato? You called it something like “brettino”, and labeled it “buratto” but I don’t think either is right because neither come up as tomatoes. Is it Buratino instead? P.S. I really like tomato taste tests and would especially like to see a taste test comparison both without and with salt. Salt especially seems to enhance the flavor of tomatoes and I am curious if it would have changed your opinion or ranking for any of these.
Hello! The orange/yellow long tomato with the little tail, lol is Buratino. MY ABSOLUTE FAVOURITE. I had family over and everyone gobbled up the Buratino slices! Salt or no salt! Great idea!!!. Thank you
The first year I planted some tomatoes that I was given, about half the tomatoes split. However, the next year the tomatoes came back from seed en masse and almost none of the tomatoes from the plants that descended from them split. Who knows why!
Honestly, that is what makes gardening so intriguing, no matter what you do, you can get a different outcome! Happy gardening 😊
@@GardeningintheNorth It is! Some people say that adding calcium to your soil will help the tomatoes not to split. It may also be that these were hybrids in the 2nd generation which were less likely to split under the conditions their parents experienced. They say black cherry tomatoes are split resistant, and that is the other kind of tomato I planted alongside my big boy tomatoes that split so bad. Maybe cross-pollination made the next generation split resistant?
Black cherries are a must grow in my garden. We love them. I tried buying the yellow pear seeds from a few different companies over the years and they all seemed to split. I’m not sure, but it didn’t seem to matter where I planted them in the garden,,, no more yellow pear for me.
First
....this time.
Please cut horizontally!!! I can't tell anything cutting them the way you do
Thank you! I will definitely do it that way next time!
@@GardeningintheNorth thank you! Beautiful tomatoes!
Very boring
There's no need to be rude.
