excellent fresh but love them dehydrated
We dehydrate these and then use whole, or grind and add to soups, sauces, salad dressing or bruschetta. One of my favorite tomatoes!!

Simply the best!
I am growing these in Shawnee Kansas (2013). I crave these tomatoes, I first sliced a few and added them to tacos, delicious. The next day I found myself eating them like grapes, popping them straight into my mouth as I watched TV. Today we sliced up a plate of these to have with lunch, a drizzle of olive oil, a little salt, and fresh ground pepper, they didn't last long. These are my new favorite small tomatoes.

what makes them sweet
growing well in the southwest, but really not that sweet. is it poor soil? the weather is cooling slightly so perhaps that will sweeten the fruit.
