Sun-Dried Tomatoes are ripe tomatoes which are placed in the sun to remove most of the water content. Twenty pounds of fresh, ripe tomatoes will dry down to just one pound of sun-dried tomatoes. Sun Dried Tomatoes have the same nutritional value as the FRESH TOMATOes they are made from: they are high in Lycopene, antioxidants, vitamin C and low in sodium, fat, and calories.
Sound, whole, ripe, red tomatoes are selected, washed, halved, de-seeded, dewatered, sun dried under controlled conditions and inspections prior to packing. The resultant product is a uniform red colour. Flavour, reconstituted, is characteristic of fresh tomato without off tastes. The product may be further chopped to any size required by the customer.
