Paste tomatoes

[flowerbug]

Just curious, where did you find Philippine tomatoes? I grow quite a few vegetables from there, and would be interested in trading for seed from those tomatoes.

i think @YourRabbitGirl lives there...

what is your favorite and why? For me San Marzano. Indeterminate and has flavor. Haven't found another one that fits those 2 qualities.

made pasta yesterday... Used locally harvested philippine tomatoes... used parmesan cheese for garnishing...
Tasted heavenly...

Ok seedcorn, this is a late season harvest of Hungarian Heart on the top (which aren't exactly paste) and Federle on the bottom, and I think a large Amish Paste on the right by my hand...but this pic is from a while ago, since this is winter and all.

And since you asked for it, I believe this silly tomato was also a Federle, but I didnt have my pictures labeled to be sure.

made spaghetti using philippine tomatoes. it was sweet and tangy.. nothing is the same like philippine tomatoes... a must try.

SO what variety is a Philippine tomato? Or is it a variety? If so, who sells the seed?

We had some leftover fish in the icebox. I'm planning to slice some philippine tomatoes, onion, garlic, red bell peppers make a sauce out of it. then put the fried fish in then simmer.
