> The Tomato
Tomato is the real Piacenza red gold, the fruit of our wonderful land and in particular of the Val Nure.
Our territory is the cradle of a vast cultivation of table tomatoes and for the production of delicious fresh sauces, spread on tables around the world. Since the early twentieth century it has been one of the most important fruits of the Piacenza area, cultivated with passion and love by our farmers and expertly worked in processing companies.
Precious food for its high content of vitamins and important nutrients, it cannot be missing from the famous Mediterranean diet and traditional Piacenza dishes, such as Pisarei and fasò.
