canned tomatoes
Preserved red fruit
Canned tomatoes are tomatoes preserved in sealed metal containers, typically with juice or puree.
They come whole, diced, crushed, or as paste, and form a pantry staple for sauces, soups, and stews.
Unlike fresh tomatoes, which vary seasonally, canned tomatoes offer consistent flavor year-round: The recipe calls for a 28-ounce can of crushed tomatoes.
