Tomato-Brandywine
Considered one of the most popular tomatoes and for good reason, the Brandywine tomato is an heirloom cultivar of tomato, with large potato-leaved foliage and large pink beefsteak-shaped fruit. It is popularly considered among the best tasting available.
Brandywine tomatoes are medium to large in size, able to grow as large as 16 to 17 centimeters in diameter, and have a plump, round to oblate, flattened, curved shape. Depending on the variety, Brandywine tomatoes can weigh 8 to 12 ounces, sometimes as heavy as 32 ounces. The tomato’s skin is thin, smooth, firm, and taut with a faint sheen. The surface is also covered in ridges, giving the skin an irregular, folded, or creased appearance. Brandywine tomatoes ripen from green to shades of red, pink, or yellow, based on the type, and are topped with a cap of dark green, thin leaves. Underneath the surface, the red flesh is dense and has portions of tender, succulent meat filled with chambers of gelatinous liquid. The flesh encases only a few edible seeds and is soft and juicy. Brandywine tomatoes release a strong, fruity, floral, and savory aroma and should feel heavy for their size when ripe. The tomatoes can be eaten raw or cooked and have a sweet, fruity, earthy, and subtly bitter taste balanced with low acidity. Darker Brandywine tomatoes are said to have a sweeter, richer taste, while lighter-hued tomatoes are noted for their tangier flavors.
