Strianese San Marzano Tomato DOP, 800g

Tomatoes did not start in Italy, but the Italians found the best place to grown them - the San Marzano Valley outside of Naples in Southern Italy. The Strianese company is a great producer of DOP (Denominazione di Origine Protetta) and organic tomatoes. We have been using their products in our kitchen and in our homes for many years. Simple fact: you can't make great tomato sauce without using great tomatoes - these DOP tomatoes are where you start. Grown in the rich volcanic soils of Southern Italy, they are deep red in color, sweet and with very low acidity. Low in salt and with a single basil leaf, they are ready to be seasoned and cooked exactly the way you choose.
