What it is
This is a can of diced tomatoes that have been fire-roasted and infused with garlic. The roasting process gives the tomatoes a deeper, slightly smoky flavor profile. The addition of garlic enhances the savory notes, making them a versatile ingredient for many dishes. These tomatoes are pre-cut, saving preparation time in the kitchen. They come packed in their own juice, which can also be incorporated into recipes for added flavor and moisture.
