San marzano. Quite cheap too. 9€ for 2.5 kg

Of the stuff readily available in my area, I used centos san marzano whole canned, everything else I've tried is some combination of watery, bland, or underripe.

San Marzano. The one advertized by every chef, restaurant, food critic, etc. Another food fad like olive oil and avocado. Heirloom tomatoes have the taste.

are you suggesting that there is a massive plot to promote a certain type of tomato, done in bad faith? a coordinated effort that has to be led by whoever is ultimately behind the san marzano tomato?

>> No.15404097

>>15404053
good point
i do think it is possible
im assuming san marzano is a town in italy. it very well could be such a plot
my tomatoes this year were SHIT and i didn't even mind that they got eaten by insects
i even felt bad telling my neighbor to just grab them because she would only take a few and it made me feel like a crazy person

Dis?
I like it because it's literally the only brand I can find where the ingredients are just tomatoes and salt. No citric acid, no fucking basil/garlic/onion. I add that to my liking.
Even all the fancy San Marzano tomatoes have stuff added otherwise I'd buy that.

at this point i couldn't even tell you what the varieties are
it is honestly embarrassing but some of them in prior years have been sweeter than candy
i have a pic and it really looks more like a jungle than a garden

so if i am going to do eggs in purgatory what should i get? plum tomatoes?
