Rinse the tomatoes thoroughly under clean running water before use. Slice or dice them for salads, sandwiches and burgers, or add them to soups, curries, stir-fries and pasta sauces. You can also roast tomatoes with olive oil and garlic to bring out their natural sweetness.
Nutritional Benefits
Tomatoes are a source of vitamin C, potassium, folate and dietary fibre. They also contain lycopene, a naturally occurring antioxidant responsible for much of their red colour. Tomatoes can be enjoyed raw or cooked as part of a balanced diet.
How to Store
Store fresh tomatoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight if they are not yet fully ripe. Ripe tomatoes can be refrigerated to help them last longer. Keep them unwashed until ready to use, and rinse thoroughly before cutting or eating. Follow any specific storage instructions on the product packaging.
