Puglia's tomatoes: the harvest is upon us and the taste of summer is about to become a preserve.
July is the month when the fields begin to reveal the best of their season. Puglia’s tomatoes are reaching full maturity, coloring the gardens a deep red that heralds one of the most important moments of the year: the harvest. It’s the moment when months of work, attention, and daily care are transformed into a raw material capable of expressing the full identity of the Puglia region.
For Agricola Capuano everything starts here: from the land.
Quality begins before the harvest
A good tomato doesn’t just depend on the variety. It depends on the quality of the soil, exposure to the sun, water, the rhythms of nature, and the care with which each plant is cared for during growth.
For this reason, Agricola Capuano’s crops are monitored daily. Each fruit is harvested only when it has achieved the perfect balance of texture, sweetness, and aroma, preserving all the characteristics that make Puglia tomatoes renowned worldwide.
From the field to the processing in a few hours
The collection is just the beginning.
To preserve the aroma and flavor of freshly picked tomatoes, processing is done quickly. This “fresh” philosophy allows for the preservation of color, texture, and organoleptic properties, transforming the summer harvest into products that reflect the season year-round.
Our specialties are born from the tomatoes of Puglia
Ogni varietà viene valorizzata attraverso una lavorazione dedicata, pensata per esaltarne le caratteristiche naturali.
From the tomatoes harvested in the Agricola Capuano fields come:
- Tomato puree, made with sun-ripened tomatoes and processed fresh to preserve all the flavor of summer.
- Yellow datterino tomato, appreciated for its natural sweetness and extraordinary versatility in the kitchen.
- Sun-dried cherry tomatoes, prepared according to Apulian tradition through a drying process that concentrates aromas and flavor.
- Sunny-dried Gourmet Cherry Tomatoes, an exclusive preserve that combines the sweetness of cherry tomatoes with the richness of oil, ideal for enhancing first courses, bruschetta, and gourmet pizzas.
Each product is born from the same philosophy: respecting the rhythm of nature and transforming only raw materials harvested at the ideal time.
In Puglia, tomato preservation is a tradition that spans generations. Once, it represented the need to preserve the harvest for the rest of the year; today, it has become a gastronomic heritage that lives on thanks to meticulous and modern processing techniques.
Agricola Capuano interprets this tradition while maintaining its spirit intact: starting with high-quality tomatoes, grown in its own fields, to create authentic, safe, and flavorful preserves.
Because every great preserve always starts with a great tomato.
