Italian tomatoes

OzoneNY · May 25, 2017

I have tomato seeds from Italy I brought back with me last fall. Its a popular regional tomato My uncle Nino grows in Nocelle Italy, about an hour south of Naples. Its a slicer that they use frequently for Caprese salad but also in a mix salad and even sliced and baked. My uncle say it is Pomodoro di Sorrento, which is basically tomato from Sorrento. Its an OP with good balanced mild flavor.
I know there are older threads here on Tville about this very tomato and I suspect the seeds are not hard to find here in the US but if you cannot obtain any, I can spare a few. Google search "Pomodoro di Sorrento" and you will likely find more info.
Here is a photo, just look past the cherry tomato.
