Desi Tomato (દેશી ટામેટાં)

A traditional, slightly ribbed, round-to-oblate tomato variety known for its juicy pulp, higher seed count, and distinctively tangy (sour) flavor compared to hybrid salad tomatoes. Extensively used in Indian cooking to provide natural acidity and depth to dals, curries, Gujarati sweet-and-sour Tameta Nu Shaak, rasam, and fresh spicy chutneys. High in lycopene, vitamin C, potassium, and natural antioxidants.
