After the cherry tomato was created, a new strain of tomato was created in Southeast Asia which combined the thicker skin of the beefsteak-style tomato with the size and flavor of the Italian Roma tomato. The result was a first generation hybrid fruit with a thick skin, low water content and an intense sweetness. Because it resembled an olive or grape, this new variety became known as a grape tomato.
Preparation
Store grape tomatoes at room temperature, and make sure to wash and roll in a paper towel before serving/using.
