{"product_id":"costoluto-fiorentino","title":"Costoluto Fiorentino","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eCostoluto Fiorentino is one of the old Florentine tomatoes — deeply ribbed and lobed, flattened rather than round, each one a slightly different irregular shape. The name comes from \u003cem\u003ecostola\u003c\/em\u003e, meaning rib, and that heavy fluting is the whole point: sliced across, the fruit falls into scalloped, almost flower-shaped sections. It is dense and fleshy inside, with relatively little seed and water for its size, and a flavour that is properly savoury — sweet, but with the acidity and depth that thinner modern tomatoes tend to lack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThat structure is what makes it so useful in the kitchen. Raw, the thick walls hold their shape in a salad and stand up to good oil and salt without collapsing. Cooked, they break down into a sauce with real body and concentration, which is why this tomato has been grown around Florence for sugo and passata for generations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Italy\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStorage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Keep at room temperature, out of direct sunlight.
