Right now our staple food is the tomato. Our plants in our garden are producing rapidly, so we eat them just about every day. This is a Green Zebra tomato. This is what it looks like when it's ripe. They are delicious- they taste a little different from a regular tomato- sort of like a kiwi fruit, but not as sweet.

now that is one gorgeous tomato! i tried growing heirloom tomatoes in my upside down planter, but only managed to harvest a single tomato last summer! deck gardening is tricky when you don't get consistent sunshine. we had better luck with the bell peppers.

Natsumi,
I'll try to save you some seeds & mail them to you so you can grow them next year. They are sooo good!
fuoriborgo: We have been eating them like a regular tomato. A few nights ago, we took these Zebras, some Brandywines, and San Marzano tomatoes from our garden, diced them, combined them with a little sugar, salt, pepper, olive oil and lemon juice to taste, tossed the mixture over al dente cappelini, added fresh chopped basil & parmesan reggiano cheese...so good!
it looks like a watermelon!
mmm, strange but cool!
There is nothing--and I mean nothing--like homegrown tomatoes! And yours are so beautiful!
A tomato playing the tiger ? Beautiful pictures !!! Thanks.
Oh what a lovely Tomatoe! I think I've never eaten a green tomatoe! And it comes from your garden!... Do you have a lot of treasures like this in your garden?...
Like the others I never saw these either. Just the name is so exotic.
And the recipe you gave to in the comments...mouthwatering!
Have a great week, Jeannette
