Tomato seeds

The tomato variety bred for sauce and packaging is known as a plum tomato, commonly referred to as a processing tomato or paste tomato. They often have an oval or cylindrical shape, have much fewer locules (seed chambers) than conventional round tomatoes (typically only two), and generally contain more solids, making them more suited for processing. Due to their reputation as being easier to handle and being available in a more mature stage than other supermarket tomatoes, plum tomatoes are occasionally preferred by chefs for use during the tomato off-season.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) – Tomato Seeds

What are plum tomatoes?

Plum tomatoes, also known as processing tomatoes or paste tomatoes, are a specific variety bred for their ideal qualities in sauces and pastes. They’re typically oval or cylindrical, have fewer seed chambers (locules) than round tomatoes, and contain more solids – perfect for concentrated tomato products.

Why choose plum tomatoes for sauce?

Plum tomatoes have a higher solids content compared to round tomatoes, meaning they require less cooking time to thicken sauces and pastes. Their fewer seed chambers also lead to a smoother final product.
