Dried tomatoes are a concentrated and flavorful ingredient widely used in Mediterranean cuisine, particularly Italian dishes. These tomatoes are sun-dried or dehydrated to preserve their robust taste and nutrients. Rich in vitamins A, C, and K, dried tomatoes are also a good source of potassium and antioxidants like lycopene, which support heart health and combat free radicals. High in fiber, they aid digestion and promote satiety. However, dried tomatoes can be calorie-dense due to the dehydration process and are often preserved in oil, which can add extra fat content. They may also contain added salt, so monitoring sodium intake is essential, especially for individuals with high blood pressure. Versatile and easy to store, dried tomatoes can enrich everything from pasta sauces to salads with their tangy and savory flavor, making them a nutritious and convenient pantry staple.
