Did you know? Tomatoes are technically classified as fruit, not vegetables. Botanically, tomatoes are berries, specifically categorised as "hesperidium" which is a type of berry with a tough rind and a fleshy interior containing seeds. The oil content in tomato seeds is modest, ranging from around 10% to 20% of the seed's weight. This means that a considerable amount of tomato seeds would be required to obtain a significant quantity of oil.
Suggested Storage: Store at <30°C in closed containers and protected from direct sunlight.
