Amish Paste tomatoes are a treasured heirloom variety with a rich history rooted in Pennsylvania Dutch farming traditions. This variety is renowned for its excellent paste-making qualities and robust flavor. The tomatoes are typically deep red with a slightly elongated, oval shape, making them ideal for sauces, salsas, and canning. They are known for their meaty texture and low moisture content, which contributes to a thicker, richer tomato paste and sauce. Amish Paste tomatoes generally reach maturity in about 80 to 90 days and exhibit an indeterminate growth habit, meaning they continue to produce fruit throughout the growing season. The plants are vigorous and produce a substantial yield of large, firm tomatoes that require staking or caging to support their heavy fruit. With their storied history, outstanding flavor, and productive nature, Amish Paste tomatoes are a beloved choice for gardeners and home cooks alike.
