About Whole San Marzano Tomatoes DOP In Puree By Rega - 5

San Marzano tomatoes, a variety of plum tomatoes, are considered by many to be the best tomatoes in the world. They come from the Sarnese Nocerino Area at the foot of Mount Vesuvius in the Campania region of Italy. They are grown in volcanic soil that emerged from the nearby Mount Vesuvius. San Marzano's volcanic soil is believed to act as a filter for impurities in the water, making these tomatoes as pure as can be. San Marzano tomatoes are thinner and more pointy than ordinary plum tomatoes, with a flesh that is much thicker with fewer seeds. These premium tomatoes taste much stronger than regular plum tomatoes, and they are less sweet and less acidic as well. World famous San Marzano tomatoes are perfect to use when creating your own pasta sauce. We also love them chopped and added to soups and pizzas. The flavor they add to your dish is premium quality, a little bitter and sweet at the same time. The name "San Marzano" has earned status both a place of origin and as a distinct variety of tomato. In order to avoid imposters, when buying San Marzano tomatoes, always look for the DOP emblem on the label. Drained weight 58.5 oz Whole, peeled tomatoes in purée. Kosher OU
