The roots of this tomato lie in the rediscovery of ancient varieties

The tomato, originally from the Americas, arrived in Europe after the discovery of the New World and became a prominent feature of Mediterranean cuisine. Over the centuries, countless varieties have been selected, but the push toward industrial production gradually reduced the richness of this biodiversity in favor of a few standardized varieties. Striped tomatoes like the Zebrino belong to the fascinating family of ancient and "heirloom" tomatoes, traditional varieties now being rediscovered and revalued for their extraordinary variety of shapes, colors, and flavors. Their distinctive streaks are the sign of rich genetics and passionate selection, often carried out by small-scale farmers who preserve biodiversity. Rediscovering the Zebrino means rediscovering the pleasure of a tomato with an authentic flavor and unique appearance, far removed from the uniformity of industrial products.
 
 
 

Choosing the Zebrino Tomato means taking care of yourself

Tomatoes are one of the most valuable vegetables for health and a cornerstone of the Mediterranean diet. They are renowned for their high content of lycopene, the antioxidant pigment that gives them their red color, traditionally associated with protecting cells from free radicals and promoting cardiovascular health. Colorful and striped varieties like the Zebrino also provide a diverse mix of pigments and antioxidants. They are an excellent source of vitamin C, vitamin A, and B vitamins, as well as minerals like potassium. Thanks to their high water content, they are particularly thirst-quenching and low in calories, ideal for a light diet. Eaten raw, as befits the Zebrino, they best preserve vitamin C. Being organic, they are free of synthetic chemical residues. A healthy, tasty, and cheerful vegetable, an ally of well-being and good food.
