SOURCING
These tomatoes are grown by a network of smallholder farmers in the Aegean region in Turkey. The tomatoes are picked from the field, washed, sliced in half, then laid out to dry in the sun on wide sheets, where they lose up to 95% of their weight.
Fun fact: These tomatoesaren’t as sweet as the tomatoes that you’d typically pick up at the market. There’s a good reason for that: the sweeter tomatoes produce a clumpy, sticky powder, while these have atangykick that’s easy to sprinkle on any dish.
