Stor Gul
Stor Gul is a Danish/Swedish or possibly French heirloom tomato. Stor Gul means "grandiose/big lemon-yellow" in both Danish and Swedish and this large golden tomato lives up to its name!
This open-pollinated golden orange tomato has a rich acidic flavor. The golden meaty flesh is perfect for a slicing tomato. Add a touch of gold to your next sandwich.
Stor Gul makes a beautiful canning tomato.
The Healthy Appeal of Yellow/Orange Tomatoes
All tomatoes contain lycopene, a healthy antioxidant that may reduce cancer, cardiovascular disease and macular degeneration risk. Orange tomatoes, such as Stor Gul and Tangerine, however, contain a form of lycopene that is absorbed better by the body.
Odd fact:
There is an enormous yellow rabbit sculpture named Stor Gul Kanin (Big Yellow Bunny) in Orebro, Sweden. This temporary building sized sculpture was created and designed by Dutch artist Florentijn Hofman. It was built by 25 local volunteer craft people using local materials. Sadly is is not made using Stor Gul tomatoes.
