Strainese San Marzano Tomato of Agro Sarnese - Nocerino DOP 400g

Product Description

The undisputed gold standard of Italian tomatoes for the perfect sauce.

Strianese San Marzano DOP tomatoes are grown in the volcanic, sun-drenched soils of the Agro Sarnese-Nocerino region near Mount Vesuvius. These elongated, vibrant red tomatoes are prized by chefs and pizzaiolos worldwide for their low seed count, thin skins, and thick, meaty flesh.

What sets the San Marzano apart is its unique flavor profile: a perfect harmony of sweetness and mild acidity that intensifies when cooked. These tomatoes are hand-picked at peak ripeness and peeled before being packed in their own natural juice, ensuring that the fresh, garden-picked aroma is preserved for your kitchen.

• DOP Certified: Guaranteed Protected Designation of Origin, ensuring they are grown and packed according to strict traditional standards in the designated Sarnese-Nocerino region.

• Exceptional Texture: Deeply meaty with very few seeds, resulting in a smooth, thick sauce without the need for excessive reduction.

• Natural Sweetness: Known for a delicate, non-acidic finish that defines the authentic Neapolitan pizza experience.

• Versatile Kitchen Staple: The essential base for a true Marinara or Margherita sauce, as well as rich ragùs and soups.

Weight: 400g (Peeled) Cooking Tip: For a traditional Neapolitan pizza sauce, don't use a blender. Simply crush these tomatoes by hand or with a fork, add a pinch of sea salt, and let their natural flavor shine.
