Premium Smoked Sun Dried Tomato Powder

Roma-style tomatoes that are picked at the peak of ripeness and then sun dried using the traditional method to develop the rich flavor profile characteristic of authentically sun dried tomatoes. Natural smoke flavor is added to provide a rich smoky flavor. Following the drying process, the tomatoes are then milled to create a product appropriate for use in dry mixes, pasta dough, soups, smooth sauces and snack coatings.
