SAN MARZANO TOMATOES P.D.O.
Origin: Italy
Season: June - August
San Marzano tomatoes are a variety of plum tomatoes that are named after the town of San Marzano sul Sarno, near Naples, Italy. These tomatoes are known for their unique flavour and are commonly used in Italian cuisine for making sauces. The volcanic soil in the region, coupled with the Mediterranean climate, is believed to contribute to the distinct flavour of these tomatoes.
San Marzano tomatoes have a meaty texture, fewer seeds, and less water content than other tomato varieties. They are highly sought after for their rich, sweet flavour and low acidity. They are particularly popular for making rich and flavourful sauces, especially the classic Neapolitan sauce. In addition to cooking, they can also be consumed fresh in salads, bruschetta, and other dishes.
While San Marzano and Roma tomatoes are both plum tomatoes, San Marzano tomatoes are generally thinner and more pointed, with a sweeter and less acidic taste than Roma tomatoes. Romas are typically more widely available and are used in similar culinary applications, but they have a different taste and texture profile.
Authentic San Marzano tomatoes from Italy have a Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) or DOP (Denominazione di Origine Protetta) label, indicating that they are grown in a specific region and according to certain standards. If you're looking for authentic San Marzano tomatoes, be sure to look out for the PDO label.
