Why choose Amvrosia Gourmet Dried Tomatoes?

Discover the authentic taste of the Mediterranean

Amvrosia Gourmet Dried Tomatoes bring the essence of the Greek sun to your kitchen. Harvested at full ripeness and traditionally dried directly in the sun, these tomatoes acquire a natural sweetness and intense flavour that will enchant any lover of Mediterranean cuisine.

The history of sun drying tomatoes

Sun-drying tomatoes has a long history in the Mediterranean and has been a key way of preserving fresh fruit during the winter months. This ecological method uses only natural solar energy, in which the water gradually evaporates, concentrating the natural sugars and flavours.

This makes dried tomatoes not only nutritious, but also an indispensable ingredient in recipes - from traditional Greek specialties to modern culinary creations.

How to prepare dried tomatoes for use

For maximum taste experience, we recommend rehydration before use:

• Soaking: soak the sun-dried tomatoes in warm water or good quality olive oil for 30 minutes.
• Restore juiciness: this simple step will restore the tomatoes to their original juiciness and prepare them for immediate use in your recipes.

Versatile use for rich flavour

• Salads and sandwiches: Add them to fresh salads or sandwiches for a bold flavour.
• Sauces and Pasta: Use them in sauces, pizzas or pasta where they add an authentic Mediterranean flavour.
• Greek spreads and dips: combine with herbs, garlic or olives to create an original spread.

Other varieties of dried tomatoes

In addition to the classic dried Greek tomatoes, you can also try other delicious variations that will give your dishes an even more intense Mediterranean flavour and aroma:

• Dried tomatoes in olive oil - ready for immediate use. Thanks to the high quality extra virgin olive oil, they are softer and juicier. Ideal for salads, pasta, sandwiches or as a delicious accompaniment to cheese and tapas.

• Dried tomatoes in balsamic vinegar - have a balanced sweet and sour taste and are perfect for grilled meat, fish or Mediterranean sauces and spreads.

• Spread of dried tomatoes - perfect for fresh bread, bruschetta or as a base for Greek meze. It is a great complement to grilled meat, vegetables or can be used in sauces and marinades.

In Greek cuisine, sun-dried tomatoes are traditionally used as a flavouring agent that adds depth and richness of flavour to dishes. They combine well with olives, feta and halloumi cheeses, herbs such as oregano and basil, and quality olive oil. Add them to your dishes and discover the authentic taste of Greece!
