Vine tomato ⚖
510319
The vine tomato is a variety of tomato sold still attached to its vine, which preserves its aroma and freshness for longer. Supplied by Le Delas, a wholesaler in Rungis, it is characterised by its medium size, uniform red colour and juicy flesh. Its taste is generally well balanced between sweetness and acidity.
Culinary uses:
The vine tomato is suitable for a variety of uses, both hot and cold:
► Salads and starters: Ideal for mixed salads, mozzarella salads and starters where its freshness and juiciness are appreciated.
► Cooking: Perfect for making sauces (homemade tomato sauce), soups (gazpacho), or roasted in the oven on the vine (for an attractive side dish).
► Sliced and garnish: Used sliced in sandwiches, bruschettas or savoury tarts.
Storage and preparation tips:
► Storage: Fresh product. Store at room temperature away from light to optimise flavour. Avoid refrigeration, which can alter its taste and texture.
► Preparation: Wash before use. Cut into slices or cubes, or use whole depending on the recipe.
