Royal Sun Italian Peeled Plum Tomatoes

Description

Royal Sun Italian Peeled Plum Tomatoes are whole, skin-removed plum tomatoes packed in juice, grown and tinned to the same standard found in Italian kitchens but equally at home in a Nigerian pot of stew or jollof rice. Their naturally lower water content means they reduce down faster into a rich, full-bodied sauce base, with a clean sweetness that doesn't need much sugar to balance.

How to use

• Blend with tatashe, scotch bonnet, and onion for a classic Nigerian stew or jollof rice base.
• Fry the blended mixture in oil over medium-high heat until reduced and the oil rises to the top.
• Use unblended in pasta sauces, soups, or casseroles where a chunkier tomato is preferred.

Storage

• Store unopened in a cool, dry cupboard.
• Once opened, transfer to a sealed container, refrigerate, and use within 3 days.

Frequently asked

Can I use these straight from the tin without cooking?

They're best cooked down — frying releases the natural sweetness and reduces the sauce to the right consistency for stew, jollof, or pasta.
