Canned Rega Rega DOP San Marzano Tomatoes
28 oz (800 grams) - San Marzano, Italy
Recently featured on Dr Oz as one of the top 5 super foods, don't be fooled by "San MarzanoTomatoes" grown in canned in the US. These are the real deal - grown and canned in Italy and DOP certificed as the real schlemiel. And you can definitely taste the difference.
While the tomato originated in the New World and didn't make it to Italy until the 17th century, it made up for lost time quickly!
Not only is Italian cuisine, of course, renowned for tomatoes, but the San Marzano region near Naples is considered one of the best tomato-growing regions in the world - a true tomato heaven! These are the real thing, certified from the Sarnese-Nocerino area.
Why are these Rega Rega tomatoes so good? Because they take healthy, ripe tomatoes and processes them the day they are picked, preserving all of the genuine freshness and perfume of the tomato.
Control exactly how much salt you'd like in your recipe, with no worries about excess sodium. Like some other wonderful European agricultural products, these tomatoes have a D.O.P. certification (Denominazione di Origine Protetta), ensuring their provenance and quality. They are also perfectly cooked outside the can, and then heated just enough in the can to seal in all that delicious flavor. Perfect every time.
