Pink Barbastro Tomato
Flavor, texture and tradition in the same tomato
The Pink Barbastro tomato is a variety that has special characteristics such as its size, with irregular shapes like scars, and its color, which, as its name suggests, is pink. It is a very traditional tomato, known as ‘the vegetable garden tomato’.
The Pink Barbastro tomato is a large, very fleshy tomato with a thin skin, hardly any seeds, is sweet and has very little acidity. Its color, as its name indicates, has a pinkish hue instead of the intense red that other tomato varieties usually have, all of which makes it a very special and characteristic variety that can be easily recognized at first glance.
It is an ideal variety to prepare salads, toasts and appetizers, in which you can appreciate its strengths such as flavor, appearance and texture. To savor the vegetable garden you only need Pink Barbastro tomatoes, oil and salt.
