Mutti Tomato Vinegar
Similar to red wine vinegar but slightly less sharp, Mutti's Tomato Vinegar has a sweet-savory balance and smooth quality reminiscent of balsamic, with an intense sun-dried tomato aroma. It's not too acidic but rather balanced by caramelized sweetness and an earthy umami depth. This complex vinegar enhances raw tomato recipes and can be used in simple applications. We like to drizzle some on caprese salads or toss it in pasta salad, with feta or goat cheese as a creamy counterpoint.

Aldo Armato Sun-Dried Tomatoes in Oil
The Armato family has been producing fine Italian products, from olive oil and condiments to preserved vegetables and pastas, at their mill in Liguria, Italy, for five generations. If you have these in your pantry, then you will have the finest tomatoes of Liguria all year-round. The Armato sun-dried tomatoes are juicy and sizeable, dried first to express their sweet and compelling flavor before they are bathed in buttery Ligurian olive oil. The tomatoes are picked at the peak of ripeness and preserved in golden extra virgin olive oil pulled from fruity Taggiasca olives. Chop or leave whole to use as a topping for focaccia, mixed into pasta, added to sandwiches, blended in pesto, turned into aioli, stirred into ricotta or incorporated into eggs and omelets. And don’t forget to use the oil they are packed in—infused with the sweet, mildly acidic and salty flavor of the tomatoes, it’s perfect for a vinaigrette or for dipping bread.
Aldo Armato Semi Sun-Dried Cherry Tomatoes in Oil
The Armato family has been producing fine Italian products, from olive oil and condiments to preserved vegetables and pastas, at their mill in Liguria, Italy, for five generations. And their Semi Sun-Dried Cherry Tomatoes are a revelation in sweet-tart flavor and satisfying texture. Harvested in Italy at the peak of summer, these cherry tomatoes are semi sun-dried. The process requires removing them from all heat before fully drying out, so each tomato can stay plump, supple and juicy—unlike the tougher, shriveled varieties in the grocery store. They are packed in the Armato family’s fruity, high-quality olive oil. Chop or leave whole to use as a topping for focaccia, mixed into pasta, added to sandwiches, blended in pesto, turned into aioli, stirred into ricotta or incorporated into eggs and omelets. And don’t forget to use the oil they are packed in—infused with the sweet, mildly acidic and salty flavor of the cherry tomatoes, it’s perfect for a vinaigrette or for dipping bread.
