Slow-simmered with fresh organic basil, kosher salt, cracked black pepper, and a medley of organic carrots, onions, and garlic, all brought together with the richness of organic extra virgin olive oil. This classic combination of premium ingredients offers an authentic taste of Italy, highlighting the natural sweetness of San Marzano tomatoes. According to Savor Imports, San Marzano tomatoes are grown in the rich volcanic ash soil in the San Marzano Valley near Mount Vesuvius. The soil produces a sweet, tender tomato with a low seed count, making it easy to create sauces in a sauté pan while keeping the natural flavor of tomatoes. These tomatoes are controlled and certified by Consorzi Di San Marzano, guaranteeing authenticity. They are all-natural, without salt, citric acid, or sodium chloride.
