The Cherry tomatoes are cultivated in April and are picked
by hand in the month of July. All the phases are processed
inside our factory. The tomatoes are picked, washed, selected,
manually cut, salted and desiccated in the sun for 4-5 days on
wood frames. Then, they are selected, washed and seasoned
with Mediterranean spices and put in extra-fine-olive-oil.
We still use this traditional method, handed us down by our
grandfather. To obtain 800 Gr. of sun-dried cherry tomatoes
we need about 10 Kg of fresh tomatoes and more than 130
working hours!
The sun-dried cherry tomatoes are fragrant and appetizing,
perfect to surprise your guests during a hors d’oeuvre. Also
very good with a fresh mozzarella, on a pizza, on a bruschetta
(roasted bread) with capers from Racale or for a fast and
delicious pasta with fresh basil. An ever-increasing number of
famous chef have noticed the versatility of this product and are
using it more and more to create extraordinary dishes.
