Whole tomatoes

Whole tomatoes refer to fresh, intact tomatoes that have not been sliced, chopped, or processed in any way. They can be used in various culinary applications, including salads, sauces, soups, and stews. Whole tomatoes can be found fresh, canned, or jarred, and they are valued for their flavor, juiciness, and versatility in cooking. When canned, whole tomatoes are often packed in tomato juice or puree, retaining their natural taste and texture, making them popular for recipes that require a tomato base. Whole tomatoes are an essential ingredient in many cuisines and can be used raw or cooked to enhance dishes.
