I just read a article about Tomaccio "The Raisin Tomato" and I am intrigued. A local nursery has them I am may go and pick one up. Has anyone grown them and tried to dry them?
I know the type you are talking about but these are actually a tomato, but they are supposed to dry very sweet. In the acticle I read the writer stated that if you just want cherry tomatoes to get something different but if you want to dry them that they are worth it. The big complaint was that they crack very easy, so if they do not have a consistant supply of water then all the tomatoes will split. If I get them I will use them as a patio tomato and keep them in a pot. Their origin is Israel.hoodat said:I tried them and was dissapointed. They aren't to my taste
Note: the tomatio is an entirely different (but related) veggie, used in Mexican cooking and especially in salsa. It looks like a green tomato in a husk.
