Travel with us through our alphabet. In this article, we collect all the letters of Elvea's ABC in one place. Discover the most surprising facts, indispensable recipes and useful tips about our delicious, 100% natural tomato products.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A of Nutri-Score A<\/strong>
At Elvea, only the very best is good enough. Did you know that 45 of our 48 products carry the highest Nutri-Score A? That means choice trumps daily use of our delicious Italian tomatoes in delicious and healthy dishes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

B of Balls<\/strong>
Soup and balls are like tomatoes and mozzarella: they just work better together. We previously shared our golden tips for extra creamy cheese balls that go perfectly with your fresh tomato soup<\/a><\/em>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Add grated cheese to the mince for nice cheesy balls.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Milk and some breadcrumbs add extra creaminess.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Don't twist the balls between your hands longer than necessary, and don't press them too firmly either, this will keep them juicy and tender.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    C from Cubetti <\/strong>
    Not in the mood for a monotonous sauce? Give your pastas and soups a flavor boost with     Cubetti<\/a><\/em>! Take your dishes to the next level with our flavored diced tomatoes. Choose from six flavors, including Garlic, Basil and Arrabbiata.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    D of Durable <\/strong>
    In addition to our tomato products being 100% natural, we at ELVEA are also committed to sustainable packaging. As much as possible, our products are packaged in tin, cardboard or glass. These are all recyclable or reusable materials. Thus, together, we help reduce the plastic mountain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    E of Simplicity<\/strong> 
    \u2018Simplicity is wealth\u2019 is the motto in Italian cuisine. Because the very best pasta is still the one with a simple tomato sauce, some basil and freshly grated parmesan. Why not make it even easier for yourself with Elvea's 100% natural products? That's how you really taste the power of simplicity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    F from FreeFrom.iDcard <\/strong>
    Elvea is committed to 100% transparency about what is in our products. That is why we have introduced the FreeFrom.iDcard on our packaging. This label can be found on the back and gives you clear information about the natural origin of our ingredients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    G of Conviviality <\/strong>
    Good food tastes twice as good in good company. The letter G stands for those cozy dinners with friends and family. Evenings filled with comfort food, casseroles and well-seasoned stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    H from Heart for cooking <\/strong>
    The letter H stands for our great love of cooking with tomatoes. A passion we share with top chefs such as Peppe Giacomazza, Wim Ballieu, Jeroen Meus and many others. Because admit it: a dish prepared with love, you taste it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    I of Italy <\/strong>
    Our tomatoes have been growing under the warm Italian sun in the regions of Emilia-Romagna and Campania since 1885. For 139 years they have been bringing that delicious Italian warmth and flavors to us from there. Long live Italy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    J from June <\/strong>
    We are not exaggerating when we say that June is one of the highlights of the ELVEA year. In this magical month, the yellow blossoms on our tomato plants grow into green and later red fruits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    K from Kilogram <\/strong>
    Can you guess how many kilograms of canned tomatoes an average Italian eats a year? More than 6 kilograms! And we Belgians have taste too... We consume on average more than 3 kilograms of canned tomatoes per year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    L from Legumi <\/strong>
    Do you know our     Pomo e Legumi<\/a><\/em> al? This tomato concentrate is enriched with fresh vegetables (onion, carrot, celery), olive oil and natural flavors. The ideal base for classic Italian and southern dishes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    M from Melanzane <\/strong>
    According to us, you write the name of this dish with 5 m's: Mmmmmelanzane. A delicious casserole from Sicily made of layers of eggplant, tomato sauce, mozzarella, fresh basil and Parmesan cheese.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    N of Natural <\/strong>
    Our tomatoes and products are 100% natural. Naturale, cento per cento. Did you know that tomatoes in summer are also your secret weapon for glowing skin? They contain lycopene, a powerful antioxidant that's good for your skin and eyes. If you combine tomatoes with healthy fats (like olive oil), your body will absorb it even better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    O from Ode to Harvest Month <\/strong>
    August is the highlight of the year for ELVEA. All of our sun-ripened tomatoes come straight from the field then and are canned immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
