(Solanum lycopersicum)
A favourite among home gardeners and preservers, Amish Paste is a traditional heirloom tomato renowned for its rich flavour and dense, meaty flesh. Producing large, deep red fruits with relatively few seeds, this variety is prized for creating thick sauces, tomato paste, soups, and preserves without excessive cooking down.
The fruits have a sweet yet well-balanced flavour, making them just as enjoyable fresh as they are cooked. Their generous size and firm texture make them ideal for slicing, while their high flesh content makes them one of the most versatile tomatoes in the kitchen.
Growing on vigorous indeterminate vines, Amish Paste produces abundant harvests over a long season. This heirloom variety has been cherished for generations and remains a top choice for gardeners looking for flavour, productivity, and versatility.
