Così Com'è Datterino Giallo in Succo – A golden speciality from Southern Italy
In the south of Italy, between the fertile farmlands of the Piana del Sele in Campania, special tomatoes grow that are not red but golden yellow.
The Datterino Giallo is a small, elongated tomato with a pronounced natural sweetness and a delicate, fresh taste.
With Così Com'è Datterino Giallo in Succo, you discover these special tomatoes as they are meant to be: whole, unpeeled, and preserved in their own juice.
What makes yellow datterino tomatoes so special?
Yellow datterino tomatoes stand out from classic red tomatoes due to their mild flavour, natural sweetness, and striking colour.
Their golden yellow hue gives dishes a distinctive character. A simple pasta sauce transforms into a sunny Italian dish, while fish and seafood pair beautifully with their refined taste.
The tomatoes are not peeled. This way, they retain their natural skin and structure.
Straight from the Piana del Sele
The Piana del Sele is located in the Italian region of Campania, in the province of Salerno.
The fertile soil and Mediterranean climate make this area particularly suitable for the cultivation of flavourful vegetables and tomatoes.
Finagricola, the producer behind Così Com'è, grows its special datterino tomatoes here and processes them into Italian tomato specialities.
Why in their own juice?
The whole yellow tomatoes are preserved in juice from the same tomato variety.
This allows you to use both the tomatoes and the tasty juice. During cooking, the juice provides a soft, golden base for sauces, while the whole tomatoes add extra structure.
