Which Tomato is Best? Tomato Taste Test 2022 || Black Gumbo

Which tomato variety tastes the best out of the four that I have grown this year? join me as I taste each one fresh from the garden, and, the same varieties stored for a week on my countertop. Will there be a difference? The varieties I will trial today are:

Beefsteak
Clementine F1 Hybrid
Morning Sun
Edox F1 hybrid

I am on a quest to find my favorite tomato varieties. Each year I grow some new varieties in an effort to expand my horizons. This taste test confirms to me some that I will grow again, and some that I want.

I have my favourites that I grow year to year as my small garden doesn’t have space to waste. 😊

I don’t know what tomatoes I’m growing but I can’t wait. They are producing right now.

Gardeners Delight was sweeter than expected for me. Got the seeds from Dollar Tree, now it's a staple.

I’m jealous! I literally planted my tomatoes yesterday…I can’t wait to eat some fresh tomatoes!!

Hey! My favorite cherry tomato was one I planted last year for the first time ! I loved it, has regular old fashioned tomato taste, produced tons of tomatoes on it, all fhe way til Sept!
Mountain Vineyard Chedry tomato, fromm Hoss Tools
You should try it!

I am so jealous you already have homegrown tomatoes to taste… 🍅💕

[cindyburst]

I love this! Last time I remember sweet Sam was in on the taste test. I guest he’s too young to not know that he’s not too old to participate. If u get me. Lol. Gotta love the tweens and teens.!Thanks Scott.

Thanks for the taste testing. I used to swear by the old original Celebrity tomato. Need to do again.

[KittenCece]

That cherry tomato, morning sun, that sounds freaking delightful

[andreastearns]

The comments pretty much cover everything. The only thing I would add are yellow pear tomatoes! I live in Arkansas and have had a ton of success with those 👍

I made this recipe today for supper with pan grilled chicken breast. Next time I’m going to just use it as a sauce over the chicken. Thanks for the recipe idea. It was so delicious it’s a keeper

I think I'll try the Edox next year. This year I have Sun Gold, super Sweet 100 and an Italian white cherry which I have never had or heard of. It will be a while before I have ripe tomatoes here in NY.

I also love sun gold but chocolate stripe is wonderful. My husband likes black krim which grows really fast and pineapple.

Oh just dreaming of tasting a fresh tomato. Just got plants in beds so have a bit before seeing anything. I have been hunting recipes for my harvest for canning and freezing, one I found you may enjoy is cherry tomato corn salsa. Or just freeze them to use in a sauce over winter. When they thaw skin falls right off.

Burpee Red Currant tomatoes. Try them! They are sweet like candy. They changed my opinion about tomatoes. I eat them in the garden right off the vine. Yum!

[cynthiamartinez]

The tomatoes that I must grow every year: Black Cherry, Sungold, Black Krim, and Brandy Boy. Pinks and Purples are my favorite kind of tomatoes. Sungold is sweet, tasty and prolific but I like the taste of Black Cherry better. I like Black Krim because it's similar taste to Cherokee Purple but way more prolific but also a little smaller. Brandy Boy has a similar taste to Brandywine but also way more prolific.

Juliette tomatoes are great for canning. Because the skins are tough, are fter blanching you can squeeze the back and they just shoot out onto the bowl.

Nice video Scott. Beefstake does well for me, and I have grown it now 3 years in a row. I get almost a pound tomatoes. I also like Ace 55, second year growing them. I hope the edox turn out like yours. I al also trying Black Brandywine. Sooner or later I will find 4 varieties I like to grow every year.

This year a friend from Iowa sent me some Sunrise Bumblebee Cherry tomato seeds. I thought that was what you had but you said Morning Sun. The Sunrise Bumblebee is a wonderful tomato; the flavor is great. I wish that would have been the only tomato I planted but I have an unknown tomato and a couple of plum tomatoes, too.

I am growing the Green Zebra, Sungold, San Marzano, Edox, Celebrity, and the Roma. I was super surprised how the Green Zebra tasted, it's good. My Edox was more petite than yours, I tried it because of your recommendation. The Sungold is my absolute favorite and I will grow it every year. You need to try it, Scott. I live in Zone 9A here in Texas and they do well with the heat.
