Super sun-dried tomatoes taste intensely aromatic whatever the time of year. In Apulia, where the tomatoes come from, the ideal conditions for ripening are found between two mountain ranges: light, constant winds, relatively stable weather, mineral-rich soil and plenty of groundwater for irrigation. The tomatoes are sliced by hand, scattered with sea salt and then laid out in the sun to dry.

Vitamin C has also been shown to be good for people whose immune systems have been weakened due to stress. Your vitamin C levels can drop quickly in times of stress, especially for individuals who smoke, drink heavily, or are obese. Taking in enough to replace what’s been lost is important for staying healthy.
