FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How do I use whole peeled tomatoes compared to crushed? Whole peeled tomatoes are higher quality as they use the best fruit from the harvest. You can hand-crush them for a rustic sauce or blend them for a smooth consistency, giving you more control over the final texture.
Are these tomatoes seasoned? No, these are unseasoned whole tomatoes packed with juice and a small amount of citric acid for freshness. This allows you to control the salt and herb levels in your recipes.
How should I store them once the can is opened? Never store opened canned goods in the tin. Transfer the tomatoes and juice to a glass or plastic airtight container and refrigerate. They should be used within 3 to 5 days.
Are these tomatoes suitable for a Neapolitan pizza sauce? Absolutely. Many pizzaiolos prefer Italian whole peeled tomatoes because they offer the authentic sweetness and low acidity required for a traditional Neapolitan-style pizza.
Is this product gluten-free? Yes, Teo Whole Peeled Tomatoes are naturally gluten-free and contain no wheat-based additives or thickeners.
Can these be used for tomato soup? Yes. Their firm texture and rich juice make them an excellent base for cream of tomato or minestrone soups where deep flavor is essential.
