July 30, 2010
I am doing a comparison for the best canned tomatoes. I have a lot listed already but if you know of a brand that is really good can you please share?

I really like the Dei Fratrelli brand!

I'm pretty partial to the Cento Brand- San Marzano tomatoes with a large fresh piece of basil canned with them. They're very good- not too salty and reasonably priced. The can has a bright yellow label with red lettering.

I will second the vote for Cento's San Marzanos. In a recipe where you need the tomatoes to stand out, they are totally worth it.

Probably the easiest to find of the "better" canned tomatoes is Muir Glen.
