Hello everybody. We continue publications about miracle selection.
Today we introduce to you new selection in the field of vegetable growing.
Innovations in the field of agriculture, including new varieties of fruits and vegetables, have long become a visiting card of Israel. Sharon, nectarine mango, sweets (a hybrid of grapefruit and pomelo), the world's first pepper without seeds - all these are the results of Israeli breeders.
And now there is a new selection achievement in Israel.
This is in truth the product of selection art was called "tomato-drop". Fruits the size of blueberries were cultivated by the farmers of the moshav Idan in the extreme south of Israel, in the Arava desert.
In 2015, the owners of the company Kedma went to Europe in search of something "sort of" for the Israeli market. In Holland, they stumbled upon the seeds of a new unusual variety of tomatoes that they decided to plant in Israel.
The attempt was a success - thanks to cooperation with scientists from the Arava Desert Research Center.
As a result of the selection turned out the tiny tomato, smaller than a one shekel Israeli coin, sweet and balanced with sweetness and acid in an ideal combination.
Initially, the variety (it is in both red and yellow colors) was intended for Israel consumers and in Israel itself it was appreciated. On the "tomato-drop" drew the attention of the famous chef, the owner of three restaurants Shaul bin Aderet, who intends to use it in his recipes.
He offered it sizzled in a pan, baked into focaccia bread and as a straight-up snack.
Vegetables of excellent quality, grown in the heart of the desert, where in summer the temperature seldom drops below 38 ° C - 40 ° C - a small miracle. And a tiny tomato-drop is one of such "small" miracles.
