Posardi Sardinian Whole Tomatoes - Canned

Move over, San Marzano DOPs, there’s a new pomodoro in town

I make a lot of tomato sauces and tomato-onion jams. I’ve always loved San Marzano DOP tomatoes for their sweetness, flavor and high flesh-to-seed ratio. Unfortunately, the demand for those tomatoes outstrips the production and the market is flooded with “San Marzano style” tomatoes or, worse, counterfeit DOPs. Enter the Sardinian tomato. These are genetically related to the San Marzano, if not identical. The soil in Sardinia is volcanic, similar to the San Marzano region, and is hydrated with winter rains and melting snow from the many mountains on the island. The result is incredible. These tomatoes are sweet, but with a complex flavor profile that needs only a dash of salt, olive oil, and garlic before going through the blender to make a perfect quick sauce. Simmer over low heat for an hour and the flavors grow even more complex, and the tomatoes will fall apart with a nudge from a wooden spoon. I’m in love with these tomatoes - do yourself a favor and grab some while you can!

The Best!

I also used to use San Marzano tomatoes for my sauces. Not any more! These are sweet, flavorful, and absolutely melt into a beautiful sauce.

Posardi Sardinian Whole Peeled Tomatoes - Canned (Pomodori Sardi)

28 oz can - Sardinia, Italy

The Sweetness of Sardinia 100% Pomodoro of Sardinia

We like these. The tomatoes are whole and nice inside the can. The flavor is tomato. The way a canned tomato should be. As base to your next dish. No added elements allowing you to be in control.

It has been for almost 20 years that we have had one favorite canned tomato from Italy.

So when this can of tomatoes came into our lives one day, I was hard pressed and a bit stubborn to change.

And then I used them in my basic tomato sauce and knew this would become my new favorite! Consistently sweeter tomatoes, a richer, fuller color, and with nice soft ends. These tomatoes worked perfectly just as they should, adding to a dish, without being too strong. Perfect.

Just 3 ingredients of tomatoes, tomato juice (juice from processing), and citric acid.

No salt added, Non GMO, Gluten Free, BPA Free, Pesticide Free. 100% Pomodori Sardi Tomatoes from Sardinia. Like all great ingredients, there is a difference, in this case, from one brand to the next!

These are truly good tomatoes.
