MARZANINO

ITALIAN MARZANINO TOMATOES

ORIGINALLY SWEET

MARZANINO

Grown in the sun-drenched fields of Southern Italy, Marzanino tomatoes are a premium elongated variety prized for their deep red color, naturally sweet flavor, and rich aromatic profile.
Carefully harvested at peak ripeness, they are hand-selected and gently steam peeled to preserve their integrity and achieve a smooth, velvety texture.
Dense and fleshy with low water content, Marzanino tomatoes deliver depth and roundness with natural sweetness. Their refined structure allows sauces to develop richness without long cooking or heavy reduction.
Ideal for gourmet pasta sauces, silky soups, and refined tomato preparations. Well suited for pizza applications when a smoother, more polished tomato profile is desired, they perform beautifully in recipes where texture and elegance matter as much as flavor.

Best for: Elegant sauces, gourmet pizza
Why: Velvety texture and refined sweetness create smooth, polished results.
Cooking Style: Rich & Concentrated, develops richness without long cooking

PROVENANCE

Datterini tomatoes are grown in Southern Italy, particularly in Campania and Puglia, where the Mediterranean climate supports slow ripening and naturally high sweetness. Harvested at peak maturity, they are processed within 24 hours to preserve freshness, texture, and flavor.

PREPARATION

Open the can and transfer the tomatoes to a bowl or directly into the pan. Marzanino tomatoes are best gently crushed by hand or with a fork to release their pulp while keeping a smooth, cohesive texture. They break down easily and evenly, making them ideal for refined sauces. Avoid blending, which can dull their natural richness and velvety mouthfeel.

COOKING TIPS

Use low to medium heat to allow the tomatoes to melt naturally into a smooth sauce.
Season lightly - Marzanino tomatoes are naturally sweet and well balanced.
They cook down quickly and evenly; avoid long, aggressive boiling.
Stir gently rather than frequently to preserve texture and avoid oxidation.
Pair with garlic, olive oil, butter, or onion; herbs should be used sparingly.
Excellent when finished with olive oil or a knob of butter for added silkiness.

COOKING IDEAS
Ideal for elegant tomato sauces where smoothness and depth are essential. Perfect for gourmet pasta dishes, refined pizza bases, creamy tomato soups, and sauces finished directly in the pan. Particularly well suited for recipes that call for a rich, polished tomato flavor without long reduction or added sweetness.

COOKING TIME

Refined sauces and pasta finishes: 10–25 minutes
Creamy soups or smooth preparations: up to 30 minutes

SERVINGS
One can serves approximately 1-3 people, depending on the recipe and use.

STORAGE
Once opened, transfer unused tomatoes to a non-metal container, refrigerate, and use within 3–4 days. For longer storage, freeze portions for up to 3 months.
