Tomato Cream Sausage

A cream/white elongated plum tomato on determinate plants.

Description

Also known as Banana Cream, this is one of many tomatoes bred by Tom Wagner, a cross with Yellow Banana in 1998 which was commercially released in 2004.

This determinate regular leafed plant is productive and the paste tomato is an elongated plum and a creamy white colour which makes interestingly coloured sauces. (If used on its own, its difficult to convince others that it is a tomato sauce as they expect tomato sauces to be red. When added to bolognese (or similar) sauces it makes an insipid looking sauce which is also off-putting).

We grew these for the first time in 2017 using seed from a seed swap. I don’t know if I will grow it again because of its peculiar colour.
