While American gardeners primarily use thick, meaty plum tomatoes (like Romas or Gaspacho) to boil down into sauces and pastes, Eastern European growers highly value them for <em>whole-fruit canning<\/em>. In Russia and Ukraine, small, thick-walled tomatoes are packed whole into large glass jars with garlic, dill, peppercorns, and a hot vinegar brine (pickling). A tomato like Gaspacho is perfect for this because its thick walls won&#8217;t burst or turn to mush when boiling brine is poured over them!<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\ud83d\udccc Quick Summary (TL;DR): Gaspacho \ud83c\udf0d Origin: A very popular and reliable Russian variety named after the famous Spanish cold tomato soup. \ud83c\udf3f Plant Habit: Determinate (bush).
