Italian Whole Peeled Tomatoes 28 oz – La Carmela

$5.99
Description

These come from Nocera, in Campania, a few kilometres from the fields that made the region's name. La Carmela cans them whole, peeled, in their own juice. Nothing added.

That simplicity has a consequence. They read sharper and a little more acidic than California tomatoes grown under heavy sun. Depending on your palate a pinch of sugar helps, and that is no crime when the tomato asks for it.

This is the everyday Italian can, the one you buy by the case and open without thinking. The price makes it easy to keep stocked, and the neutrality makes it easy to season your way.

A 28 oz can covers 5 to 7 twelve inch pizzas.

Specifications
  • 28 oz format
  • 100% Italian peeled whole tomatoes
  • Makes approximately 5 to 7 12" pizzas

FAQ

Why are they more acidic?

Because nothing is added: tomatoes and tomato juice, with no purée and no correction. That is also what makes them a neutral base you can season however you like.

Should I add sugar?

A pinch can help, unlike San Marzano D.O.P. where it would be a waste. Taste first, then adjust.

How do they compare to San Marzano D.O.P.?

San Marzano D.O.P. have denser flesh, less water and a sweeter finish, with certification controlling the origin. These are a solid everyday can at an easier price.
