About This Product

Picked when golden and sun-sweet, these yellow tomatoes are grown in the same distinctive “terra rossa” soil as their red cousins, but offer a gentler profile. Lower in acidity and naturally fruity, they create a passata that suits delicate seafood sauces, risotto, light pasta dishes and creamy preparations. Hyde Farm selected this to showcase tomato diversity at its finest — same exceptional terroir, completely different personality.

✓Sweet, mild flavour with low acidity

✓Grown in Puglia’s red mineral soil

✓Ideal for seafood, risotto and creamy sauces

✓Smooth golden colour adds elegance to dishes

Serving Suggestions & Cooking Instructions

Preparation: Yellow tomatoes are more delicate than red varieties. To preserve their “gentler profile” and bright golden colour, use a shorter cooking time and avoid heavy browning of base ingredients.

Method: Gently warm in a pan for 5–8 minutes over a low-to-medium heat. Sauté mild aromatics like shallots or white onion rather than garlic to ensure the subtle, fruity notes of the yellow tomato remain the star of the dish.

Pro Tip: If using in a risotto, stir the passata in halfway through the cooking process to allow the grains to absorb the golden hue and mild sweetness.

Seafood Elegance: This passata is the perfect partner for delicate fish. Use it to create a sophisticated sauce for pan-seared scallops, sea bass, or a “white” seafood linguine that benefits from a hint of fruitiness without the punchy acidity of red tomatoes.

Creamy Yellow Sauce: Blend with a touch of mascarpone or heavy cream for a luxurious, sunny pasta sauce that pairs beautifully with stuffed ravioli or Rummo Gnocchi.

Visual Contrast: Use it as a vibrant base for a gourmet pizza topped with courgette flowers, anchovies, and burrata for a striking alternative to the traditional red Margherita.

Summer Sips: Excellent for a “Golden Mary” cocktail or chilled gazpacho, where its low acidity and naturally sweet finish can be fully appreciated.
