When one conjures up a mental list of the most highly prized and sought after foods in the world, delicacies such as Russian caviar, white truffle, or Kobe beef would undoubtedly top it. But in recent years, the Italians have produced yet another culinary superstar- the Pachino tomato, a fruit that is rapidly growing in popularity.
Cultivated with the utmost care and attention in Pachino, Italy, this pomodoro is teaching palates all over the world what a tomato should taste like, just as Ahi tuna caught off the coasts of Hawaii did to those who accustomed to canned tuna. Taste buds once used to store bought tomatoes with their tough skin and lack of flavor are now able to take pleasure in the succulence and sweetness of a Pachino.
