Traditional cooking

Tomatoes were introduced to Spain by Hernán Cortés, and it wasn’t until the 17th century that they were used as food. While tomatoes originated in the Americas, the rich, homemade-style tomato sauce we know and love was born right here in Spain. Over time, it has evolved into one of the most beloved sauces in the world.

Today, it’s a kitchen essential, whether as an ingredient or a companion to pasta, meat, stews, fish, eggs, seafood, or meatballs. A good fried tomato brings flavor to every recipe—and with Nicola, quality is always guaranteed.

How to make fried tomato preserves

It might seem simple—just a few ingredients—but perfecting fried tomato is an art. The key lies in the method: timing, temperature, and our secret touch—the cut. At Nicola, we use a traditional recipe and elevate it with high-quality tomatoes and slow, careful preparation.

Tomatoes reach our kitchens freshly picked from the best Murcian fields. Their freshness gives our fried tomato its distinctive flavor. With a bit of oil, salt, and a whole lot of care, we prepare a preserve you’ll keep coming back to.

Preparation process

We begin by washing and peeling the tomatoes—no skins allowed to ruin the texture. The cut is everything. Our finely chopped tomatoes are slowly cooked with olive oil and salt, carefully stirred to prevent burning and bring out the best flavor. Acidity is balanced, and when the sauce thickens and water evaporates, we know it’s ready.

Once perfectly cooked, we blend it to the desired consistency and use innovative sealing technology to create an airtight preserve—no refrigeration or preservatives needed.

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to make fried tomato preserves?

It can take 2 to 3 hours—washing, peeling, cutting, and slow cooking in large batches takes time. That’s why Nicola is your time-saving solution.

How many calories are in fried tomato?

100g of our fried tomato contains approximately 86 kcal.

Can I freeze fried tomato?

Yes. If you’ve opened a container and won’t use it soon, transfer it to a glass or plastic container and freeze. Never freeze in the original can.

How long does it last in the fridge once opened?

Fried tomato keeps for 2–3 days in the fridge. For canned versions, transfer to a glass or plastic container once opened to prevent oxidation.

What’s in fried tomato?

Just tomatoes, olive oil, and salt. We lightly adjust acidity with a common acid regulator—no preservatives or additives.

What are the benefits of fried tomato?

Tomatoes are full of antioxidants, and cooking them enhances their nutritional value—especially their lycopene, which supports gut health and immunity.

What’s the difference between fried tomato and tomato sauce?

Fried tomato is thicker, cooked longer, and richer in flavor. Tomato sauce is usually more liquid and milder.

How long should jars be boiled for home preservation?

To ensure an airtight seal, jars should be boiled (water bath) for 10–15 minutes, then cooled for safe handling.
