August 6 Tomato Taste Tests Continue

Lilibet 8 - another taste test for this one ...... mild, watery, not a lot of flavour - heart shape; 9 oz pink/gold stripe bi-colour - Taste:  still 7+
and sliced


Lilibet 3 - 6 oz. pink/gold stripe; does have a "spark" of acid - nice- good texture with very little core (hmm - looks like a core to me?), pleasant but not a deep flavour - Taste:  8
and sliced (bi-colour)


Blood Moon - cat facing with lots of seeds; this one has flavour and depth - nice sweet/acid balance, smooth, but not much meat - Taste:  8
and sliced - the darker (gel) seeded tomato varieties tend, in my experience, to have the better flavour


Rebel Starfighter Prime - juicy - nice texture with good depth, but also mellow - excellent sweet/acid balance - no core - good!  Taste:  9
and sliced


Lilibet 4 - pink/gold heart with stripes - no core 6.5 oz; yum - lovely acid hit with sweet follow up - perfect texture - nice and meaty - this was my only Potato Leaf selection - a keeper!  Taste -9 *

 what I do with too many tomatoes ........ roast

and freeze after blending
