 Take some juicy, vine-ripe California tomatoes. Cut them in half and let them dry in the summer sun. The moisture evaporates, the flavor intensifies, the natural sweetness bursts forth. California Sun Dry Foods does just that to bring you the very best sun-dried tomatoes available anywhere, at any price! California Sun Dry tomatoes, picked at the peak of ripeness, are dried slowly in the warm California sun for 7 to 10 days and cooled by evening breezes. The slow sun-drying process allows partial rehydration at night, producing a bright red, sweet, full bodied dried tomato. Our tomatoes, although dry, retain a sweet plumpness because of the drying process. For centuries, Mediterranean cooks have extended the tomato season by drying their garden tomatoes in the sun and preserving them in oil. At California Sun Dry, we've done this for you. Using ripe California Roma Tomatoes, we follow the traditional methods, but we've given them a fresh, sweet California taste in the process. Others try to rush the process by oven drying the tomatoes, and the result is a brownish color with a slightly burnt aftertaste caused by the rapid carmelization of the tomatoes' natural sugars. Insist on sun drying...it's all in the taste! Packed in oil with herbs, these sun-dried tomatoes will enhance your cooking year-round with the taste of summer's best and make ordinary meals extraordinary!
