About Red Gold Tomatoes
From EU

Grown with great care and attention in the fertile volcanic soil, under the Mediterranean sun, these tomatoes are picked at their peak of ripeness and aroma, for maximum taste and nutrition and preserved by a time-honoured tradition, using up-to-date technology.

They are healthier than raw tomatoes because their level of the antioxidant Lycopene, high to begin with, is increased by the canning process. And they are so delicious, providing a unique flavour to both Italian and Indian recipes.

The first recorded recipe for a classic tomato sauce was by Francesco Leonardi, cook for Empress Catherine the Great of Russia; from that moment on, nothing would stop the glorious rise of the tomato and in only a short time tomatoes would become a favoured ingredient, whether for royal banquets or the simple fare of the humble.
