Piennolo Tomatoes, also known as "Vesuvio cherry tomatoes", are a heritage variety grown exclusively on the slopes of Mount Vesuvius in Campania, Italy.
These tomatoes are oval-shaped with a distinctive pointed tip and are celebrated for their thick skin and firm flesh. Cultivated in the mineral-rich volcanic soil, they offer a uniquely sweet flavor with a subtle bitter aftertaste. Piennolo tomatoes are perfect for enhancing pasta dishes, seafood sauces, and pizzas
The Piennolo del Vesuvio DOP tomatoes are a staple of Campanian agriculture, grown traditionally within the protected areas of the Vesuvius National Park. These tomatoes are preserved using the "piennolo" method, where they are hung in clusters, allowing them to mature and be stored over an extended period.
Their thick skin serves as a natural protector, while the compact flesh deepens in flavor, becoming richer and more concentrated over time.
The natural sweetness of the tomatoes intensifies through slow dehydration, making them an excellent addition to a wide range of Neapolitan dishes, from pizzas and pastas to seafood
