Freeman Organic Herbs - Tomato - Black Krim Heirloom, 4.5"

Black Krim tomatoes are a distinctive heirloom tomato variety cherished for their unique appearance, exceptional flavor, and intriguing history. Originating from the Isle of Krim, located in the Black Sea region of Russia, these tomatoes have gained popularity among gardeners and tomato enthusiasts for their striking dark coloration and delicious taste.

One of the most distinctive features of Black Krim tomatoes is their appearance. These large, beefsteak-type tomatoes typically grow to sizes ranging from medium to large, and they have an irregular, slightly flattened shape. The fruits exhibit a deep, dusky-purple to almost black skin with greenish-brown shoulders and often display characteristic dark, smoky streaks, which intensify as the tomato ripens.

In the kitchen, Black Krim tomatoes are prized for their versatile culinary uses. They are perfect for slicing and adding to salads, and sandwiches, or enjoyed fresh with a sprinkle of salt to savor their unique taste. Additionally, their robust flavor shines when used in sauces, salsas, or as a key ingredient in cooked dishes like soups, stews, and roasted vegetable medleys.
