The Mandurang Moon tomato is an heirloom variety known for its unique appearance and flavor. The Mandurang Moon has a distinctive pale yellow to creamy white skin, often with subtle pink blushes near the stem. It stands out for its almost moon-like, ethereal coloring, hence the name. This tomato is praised for its mild, sweet flavor with low acidity. It's less tangy than many red varieties, making it a favorite for those who prefer a softer, more delicate tomato taste.
The tomatoes are typically medium to large, with a round to slightly oblong shape. They can weigh between 6 to 12 ounces on average. Mandurang Moon tomatoes have a smooth, juicy texture with firm flesh, making them excellent for slicing and using in salads or as a fresh ingredient in sandwiches.
It’s an indeterminate variety, meaning it will continue to grow and produce fruit throughout the growing season until frost. The plants are vigorous and benefit from staking or caging due to their sprawling nature. This tomato is great for fresh eating, slicing, and adding to salads. Its low-acid profile makes it suitable for those who are sensitive to more acidic tomatoes.
Overall, the Mandurang Moon tomato is a striking and flavorful choice for those looking to add diversity to their garden and kitchen.
