Pomodori Pelati di San Marzano 2 Vintage

San Marzano tomatoes from the province of Salerno are considered a benchmark for Italian cuisine. This elongated variety grows on volcanic soils at the foot of Mount Vesuvius – resulting in meaty flesh, few seeds, and a pronounced sweetness with lively acidity.

These peeled tomatoes come whole and peeled in a can, with a vintage label in a classic retro style. The flesh remains firm during cooking – ideal for quickly cooked sauces like marinara or as a base for pizza Napoletana and braised meat dishes.

The vintage presentation makes a great gift for ambitious home cooks. A glass of Aglianico from Campania or a fresh Falanghina would go well with it.
