Amish Paste Tomato is an indeterminate, open-pollinated variety that is great for canning and preserving. Use for salsa, tomato paste, canned spaghetti sauces and more. Great tomato flavor. Solanum lycopersicum. 70 days to maturity.
Amish Paste tomatoes are an acorn-shaped, deep-red, paste-type fruit. The vines produce medium-sized, 8 to 12 ounce fruit. This Amish heirloom has thick flesh and few seeds. It performs better when staked.
Unlike a classic slicing 'mater that leaves juice running down your chin, paste tomatoes have a thicker, meatier flesh. The low water content makes it the go-to tomato for brewing rich sauce or tangy salsa.
