Canned Tomatoes

By:   Carl Hanson

A Saucy Situation

How did anyone cook before canned tomatoes came along? They’re an indispensable ingredient in our pantry. Added to soups, sauces, and stews--we just can’t get enough!

Savor Summer, Year-Round

Save fresh tomatoes for late summer. Picked and packaged during peak freshness, good canned tomatoes are often tastier than the sad, juiceless things we find in markets most of the year.

For Your Health

Forget “an apple a day.” Tomatoes are loaded with vitamins and have as much fiber as a slice of whole-wheat bread. Best of all, their cancer-fighting properties are enhanced by cooking.

Something from Nothing

Pantry’s bare? Canned tomatoes are a terrific starter ingredient. Cook onions and garlic in olive oil, then toss in red pepper flakes and tomatoes for a simple but scrumptious pasta sauce.
