Piennolo del Vesuvio PDO tomato purée 700g

Piennolo del Vesuvio PDO tomato purée 700g

Pomodorino Piennolo del Vesuvio DOP: how much history surrounds this incredible little tomato.
Did you know that its color is so vivid and red that it is also called fiery... someone adds a bit of poetry and says that fiery comes from the fact that the roots feed on the lava of Vesuvius. The Piennolo gets its name because the clusters of tomatoes are hung on pendulums (piennoli) and allowed to dry naturally in the cool and salty breezes of the Tyrrhenian Sea.

The sun, the wind, the sea, the fiery earth are the secrets of this extraordinary fruit rich in sugars and minerals, sweet and acidic, with a dense and full pulp, few seeds, and two lenticular bundles that divide it in half. It is the king of kings of tomatoes and ideal for the best tomato pasta dishes. They are used fresh, partially dried, in puree, or in salted pacchetella. It has a round shape when fresh and features a small beard at the bottom. The skin is particularly thick and hard, making it resistant to dehydration during drying on hemp strings. 
In this puree, you will find only Piennolo del Vesuvio DOP, fresh basil, and sea salt.
