Crushed Tomatoes

Crushed Tomato is a pantry staple made from ripe tomatoes that have been peeled, crushed and canned; it’s widely used in Italian, Mediterranean and many global cuisines as a base for sauces, soups and stews. It is very low in energy at 18kcal per 100 g, with minimal fat and modest fiber, which makes it a light way to add body and tomato flavor to dishes. Crushed canned tomatoes also supply vitamin C and other tomato phytochemicals, notably lycopene, which acts as an antioxidant and contributes to the ingredient’s protective and color qualities.
