Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Food, Cooking, and Game Preparation Gardening- tomatoes

Mike San Marzano is a tasty one and we've grown it for many moons but I recently discovered this new Hyb Roma "Capaya" and it's a big hit at the Farmers market probably due to the extremely large size and very excellent flavor.These come in at 5-7 ozs [not a paste variety] and have no green center core like so many other plums and romas which the gals really like especially for canning.

Capaya is the ONLY Determinate I've found so far in over ten years that will go full season as most give a couple of heavy sets and then they're done.Think it should be reclassified as semi-Det for full season production and the plants are quite large at about six feet.Country of origin is Mexico from what I can gather..I'll hook you up next year if you want to try a few.

Ok, been eating those tomatoes and they are nice and ripe and delicious. Not sure if the bag had anything to do with it, but what the heck.

BTW, I have never eaten such delicious tomatoes as these. When you slice into them, a great quantity juices gush out and the flesh is deep, rich red in color. I think this is how tomatoes were meant to be...

P.S. Thought I might make some eggplant parmigiana with the eggplants. If anyone has any other scrumptious eggplant ideas, please lemme know...thanks.

I made eggplant parm last night. Love the stuff.

Did the tomatoes turn red after putting them in the bag?

Well, yeah, but was it faster than if they just sat on the sill for a few days? If you say the 'science' is behind it, works for me...
