Additional Information
Whole peeled tomatoes are valued in cooking for their balance of acidity, sweetness and texture. Unlike heavily processed tomato products, whole tomatoes allow the cook to control consistency and seasoning, making them a flexible base for many cuisines. Organic tomato products are also increasingly chosen by shoppers seeking to reduce exposure to synthetic agricultural inputs while supporting farming systems that prioritise soil health.
Tomatoes naturally contain organic acids, including citric acid, which occurs in many fruits and helps maintain flavour stability. For general scientific context on tomatoes and their natural composition, information published by agricultural and food science institutions provides useful background, such as research from PubMed showing the importance of organic foods compared to generic.
Ceres Organics sources its tomatoes from certified organic growers and focuses on responsible production practices. This product fits easily into everyday cooking, whether used as the base for a simple weekday meal or as part of a longer-simmered dish where flavour develops over time.
