Mutti tomatoes

[Puffergalatics]

I’ve always bought cheap tinned tomatoes, switched to Mutti and I can’t believe the difference! Don’t need to add half the seasoning to my spag Bol not to make it not taste so acidic.

If you’ve not tried them, make the switch!

Yes, they are the best. My child eats them with a spoon from the jar!!

I have a cupboard full as I buy them on offer.

Good chopped tomatoes make all the difference. Do not buy Tesco Growers Harvest ones absolutely disgusting. Cheap for a reason lol

I've used Mutti tomatoes & think they are good but for a fry up I find Sainsbury's green label tins much nicer.

we usually get Napolina, are cirio or mutti better?

Mutti tinned cherry tomatoes are excellent.

Generally, though, if you tomato-based sauce is too acidic, add a knob of butter.

Use Mutti (or Cirio) Plum tomatoes instead of chopped & your dishes will taste even better. BTW Napolina brand does't exist in Italy!

The mutti tomato puree is delicious. Me and my DD sook it straight from the tube 🤣

I love Mutti they are generally on offer somewhere

Mutti chopped tomatoes £1.20 Sainsbury’s Nectar price.

Oh yes, they are really good aren’t they?

It ruins you for cheap tinned tomatoes! Cirrio too. I just accept I have had to triple my tomato budget. Their pizza sauce is lovely too, and their pasta sauces.

Mutti ketchup is also delicious!

(Also love the design on their tomato can - one has become a pen pot.)

Wow how silly I would never think to look at something like that !!

Op I bloody love mutti

Just buy fresh tomatoes. They’re available all year round and cheaper.

I prefer Cirio as Mutti are very finely chopped and I prefer them chunkier. My sense of taste's not what it was since Covid so haven't noticed a difference on that front.

I find the Ocado ones are a happy medium and far better than the cheap ones. Can't believe I used to think chopped tomatoes were chopped tomatoes. Dried pasta is the same, the cheap stuff is such a low protein content it's no wonder it isn't fulfilling. I do believe you get what you pay for with food and we tend to buy more expensive products but then eat less.

I’ve been banging on about these for a long time to my sister, we get them on Amazon when they’re on offer and it works out about £1 a tin, usually have 12 in the cupboard.
i don’t really cook but I do eat, dh does the cooking, they are really good quality and you really and truly can taste the difference.
I gave some to my sister and she tried them out and is a recent convert, begrudgingly!

I bought some Mutti ones and DH didn't like them, I think they were too finely chopped, I don't think you can get just chopped so we have the Cirio ones instead.

It’s like with anything - spend more on ingredients and you get a nicer meal. A lot of the time people think it’s their cooking - it’s not. A lot of fruit and veg in supermarkets is completely tasteless, same with tinned produce.

I prefer whole tomatoes in tins over chopped. The nicest ones, but wasted in a bolognese, are the tinned cherry tomatoes. Amazing in puttanesca.

Most of the year, they're imported and flavourless and, by the time you've peeled, de-seeded and reduced them down, they're definitely not cheaper.

I grow lots of my own organic, heritage tomato varieties, and cook them, pressure can or freeze, in a manner similar to what Mutti offer.

Mutti are the ONLY tinned tomatoes I'd ever buy, to use instead of my own preserved ones.

Yep, Mutti and Cirio are Italian makes, Napolina is only an Italian sounding name.
Read the labels well, most of the cheaper stuff comes from China

Me too! Looks lovely in my kitchen.
