FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is the difference between these and red roasted tomatoes? Yellow tomatoes are naturally lower in acid and higher in sugar. When roasted, they develop a milder, almost fruity sweetness compared to the punchy tartness of red tomatoes.
Can I use the oil they are packed in? Absolutely. The packing oil is infused with the flavor of the roasted tomatoes and herbs. It is highly recommended for sautéing vegetables or whisking into salad dressings.
How should these be stored once opened? Keep the tomatoes submerged in their oil and store them in the refrigerator in an airtight container. They are best used within 7 to 10 days of opening for peak freshness.
Are these tomatoes skinless? The tomatoes are roasted with their skins on, which helps them maintain their shape. The roasting process makes the skins very tender and easy to eat.
Can these be used in hot pasta dishes? Yes. While they are excellent cold, they can be tossed into hot pasta or risottos at the final stage of cooking to maintain their shape while releasing their sweet juice.
Are these tomatoes sun-dried? No, these are oven-roasted. This results in a much "plumper" and juicier texture than traditional chewy sun-dried tomatoes.
