Then mom made pesto:






When the zebaritas finally ripened they all had lot of cracking. I wasn't too happy about that, it seems like they're prone to it. So I had to cut away a lot of scars, but the green color is lovely!



You can see just how much of the zebarita I had to cut away in these slices. The flavor was good (6/10), but not nearly as good as green zebra cherry and green doctors. Because of all the splitting, I don't think this tomato makes the cut to grow again next year.




Next up is Raspberry Mochi, another newcomer to my tomato patch. I got a lot of variety in size: some were small cherry sized, but others were golf-ball sized. The flavor was really sweet, a little strange since it was also a black tomato, I'd give it a 8/10 and it was fairly productive so I'll grow these again next year.






Raspberry mochi slices next to zebarita slices. Nice contrast.





A little salt & pepper and some mozarella for a nice lunch







Plan #9 from outer space was starting to ripen!!! Almost time for BLTs!!!
