Brandywine Tomato
The Brandywine is perhaps the most celebrated heirloom tomato ever grown — an Amish heirloom from the 1880s with large, pink-red fruits and a flavor so perfectly balanced between sweet and acidic that it remains the benchmark all other tomatoes are judged against. Its irregularly shaped, beefsteak-style fruits have a silky texture and complex depth that shines with nothing more than salt and a drizzle of good olive oil. A legend in the garden and on the plate.
