What Is a Brown Tomato

Kumato® tomatoes come from special tomato plants that naturally produce dark, extraordinarily sweet fruits. This is due to their “brix level” (fructose content), which is naturally higher than that of traditional red tomatoes.

What do you call brown tomatoes?

The Kumato (I am assuming it rhymes with tomato) is a tomato with a particular color distinction – it is somewhat brown. Actually, it is a sort of amalgamation of brown, green and red, giving it a look that may appear less than appetizing to many who like their tomatoes red and only red.

How do you eat Kumato?

At its earlier stage, the Kumato is great to eat alone or with a salad. At a later stage, the Kumato becomes juicy and sweet with a higher fructose level. You can cook ripened Kumato tomatoes down into a low-acidity, naturally-sweet pasta sauce that can be used for a variety of dishes.
