San Marzano tomatoes are small with an elongated and thin, oval shape, similar in appearance to a roma tomato, but with a pointed tip. The skin is smooth, dark red, easy-to-peel, and taut with a slight give when pressed. Underneath the skin, the flesh is thick, dense, and bright red with a semi-firm consistency. Within the flesh, there are also only two seed chambers filled with a few small seeds, which is unique from other varieties that typically contain four to five chambers. San Marzano tomatoes have a low-moisture content with a mild acidity, creating a sweet, rich, and complex, jammy flavor.
