Tomato UMAMI is a unique black-purple cocktail variety, known for its rich purple skin and red, almost crimson flesh. Due to its high content of antioxidants, vitamin C, magnesium, and potassium, this tomato is considered a true 'treasure trove' of vitamins and minerals, making it not only delicious but also beneficial. Its rich color and nutrient-rich composition provide high nutritional value and appeal to consumers.
The distinctive feature of the UMAMI tomato is its flavor, which belongs to the so-called fifth taste — umami. This taste is characterized by depth and richness, caused by the presence of sodium glutamate and ribonucleotides, which enhance the basic flavors of dishes without adding foreign notes. Umami gives the tomato a special zing and makes it an ideal ingredient for various culinary applications, enhancing the flavor of dishes and lending them elegance.
The UMAMI tomato, developed by the Yoom® brand and a team led by Luis Ortega, has already gained recognition on the global market, including countries in Europe and Australia. Its unique taste qualities and health benefits make it popular among both professional chefs and health-conscious consumers. This tomato is excellent for fresh consumption, as well as for making sauces, salads, and other dishes where a rich and deep flavor is important.
