Chef Pasquale's Italian Crushed Tomatoes
Regular price $50.00 USDRegular priceBianco Family Notes
You might think that most canned tomatoes are created equal, we strongly disagree! We have sampled dozens of varieties of canned tomatoes from Costco, Whole Foods, Natural Grocers etc and in our opinion, these taste superior to them all!
Some of our favorite Italian dishes were the various “sugos” our Italian nonna, Graziella, made for us while we lived in Assisi. These were different tomato-based pasta sauces and were so simple to make, but always incredible because of the 100% Italian tomatoes. When curating our Italian pantry staples, these tomatoes were a must!
We find that whole peeled tomatoes are perfect for crafting robust pasta sauces (think vodka sauce, ragu, or a simple tomato sauce) or immersion blending for a simple pizza sauce. The crushed tomatoes are great for soups, stews, chili, and other tomato-based dishes that aren’t necessarily Italian, because the whole tomatoes are canned with basil and the crushed are just plain!
Product Description
Chef Pasquale's Italian Tomatoes are meticulously sourced from the sun-drenched fields of Apulia (a region of southern Italy also known as Puglia). Kissed by the Adriatic Sea's gentle breezes, these tomatoes are harvested at peak ripeness and seasoned with a touch of natural sea salt, delivering a rich, full-bodied flavor that embodies the essence of Italian cuisine.
Available in whole peeled and crushed, these tomatoes are crafted with minimal ingredients—no added sugars or preservatives—ensuring a pure, high-quality product.
Sizing Notes And How We Use It
The case comes with three 145oz cans of crushed tomatoes. I usually use about ¼ to ½ of a can for a single meal in my 5.5-quart pot, depending on what I’m making. Sometimes I’ll cook a bigger batch using most or all of one can at once, then freeze half or save it for another meal later in the week. I’ve tried freezing plain crushed tomatoes on their own, but I don’t love how the texture changes after defrosting, so I prefer cooking them into sauces or soups first. For example, I might use part of a can for pasta sauce one night, then use more of the same can the next night for chili or tomato soup which works really well for us! For reference, we’re cooking for a family of six.
Ingredients
Crushed Tomatoes, tomato puree, salt, citric acid.
