With this special processing also called Cold Break, the tomato is triturated at room temperature and scalded in the blancher after the washing, the optical selection and then the manual sorting, before moving directly to the subsequent processing stages. This processing method, implying a greater quantity of discard and higher costs as a consequence, guarantees the high quality of the result. In fact, the tomato preserves the bright red color, the fragrance and the full taste of fresh harvested tomatoes. This special process has proved an important factor for the consumers’ loyalty to the brand, as it confers an authentic and sweet taste to the Petti preserves, typical of the homemade ones, though being an industrial product.
Petti has developed several unique and very innovative references, first of all in 2015 “Il delicate BIO” organic version of the extra fine sieved tomato passata. Since then the company has gone along with the Italian and international market demand for healthy food, high-quality and safe ingredients, by implementing the organic line with special versions of the most valuable products, such as “Il gran polposo BIO” and “L’essenziale BIO”.. Consumers have been appreciating especially the unique products made of Tuscan organic Datterini tomatoes, with their particularly sweet and intense flavor. After “Il sublime”., sieved organic Datterini tomatoes’ passata, and “Gli speciali”, organic peeled Datterini tomatoes, in 2016 Petti launched “Il fino”, an innovative organic crushed Datterini tomatoes, and the 3 BIO Gourmet delicacies,“Il sano”., “Il piccanto” and “Il pregiato”. The range has recently been enriched with the organic version of the crushed tomato pulp, an excellent product unique on the market also for the high-service format in clusters of 2x200g.
