Diced or crushed tomatoes are versatile kitchen staples made from fresh, ripened tomatoes that are peeled, chopped, or pureed, often preserved with added salt and citric acid for flavor and prolonging shelf life. They serve as a base ingredient in various cuisines, especially Mediterranean, Italian, and Mexican dishes, enhancing sauces, soups, and stews with their vibrant, tangy essence. Packed with essential nutrients, they’re a great source of vitamin C, potassium, and antioxidants like lycopene, which supports heart health and may reduce inflammation. Typically low in calories and fat, diced or crushed tomatoes align with balanced diets, though salted options should be consumed in moderation by individuals monitoring their sodium intake. Available in canned or fresh forms, they offer a convenient and nutrient-rich addition to countless recipes while celebrating the wholesome goodness of juicy tomatoes.
