The richness of the earth and the warmth of the sun have combined to provide us with a unique fruit.
Tasty and inviting, the tomato is low in calories and rich in nutrients.
It is made up primarily of lycopene. It is usually a bright red color and is known to be good for us.
Its antioxidants keep on working even after its cooked. In fact, cooking makes them stronger. It is also available in large quantities in tomato concentrate.
Lycopene is a substance that is better absorbed when it’s eaten with fats: pour a little oil in your sauce is like adding pleasure to pleasure and makes it sort of elixir for a long life.
But the magic of tomatoes doesn't stop there. This fruit is an excellent source of vitamins A and C and of mineral salts like potassium.
Try it in all your sauces. With tomatoes, taste and health go hand in hand.
