Mutti Chopped Tomatoes (Polpa) combine the finely chopped pulpy part of the tomato with its juice, delivering the freshness of ripe tomatoes together with a pleasantly rich texture.
Made with 100% Italian tomatoes, they are ideal for both dishes requiring longer cooking times, as they maintain their fresh tomato flavour and texture throughout cooking. Their versatility makes them suitable for richer pasta sauces, baked dishes and slow-cooked recipes.
Mutti Finely Chopped Tomatoes are made from 99.8% round Italian tomatoes and a pinch of salt to perfectly balance their natural flavour. The finely chopped tomato flesh is combined with tomato juice to preserve the fresh taste and pleasant texture of just-picked ripe tomatoes.
Although the terms are sometimes used interchangeably, they are not always the same. Chopped tomatoes generally contain clearly visible pieces of tomato in tomato juice, while crushed tomatoes usually have a finer, more homogeneous consistency.
Mutti Finely Chopped Tomatoes (Polpa) are characterised by their combination of finely chopped tomatoes and juice, offering both freshness and texture. This makes them an excellent choice when you want the tomato to remain clearly present in the finished dish, while still blending harmoniously into the sauce.
The main difference between Tomato Purée (Passata) and Chopped Tomatoes (Polpa) is their texture and their best culinary use.
Mutti Tomato Purée is smooth and velvety, as the tomatoes are sieved to remove the skins and seeds. Its silky consistency makes it ideal for recipes requiring a refined, even sauce and for dishes with short cooking times.
Mutti Finely Chopped Tomatoes combine finely chopped tomato flesh with tomato juice, preserving the fresh taste and texture of ripe tomatoes. Their richer consistency makes them particularly suitable for recipes where visible pieces of tomato are desired, such as pasta sauces, pizzas, baked dishes and slow-cooked recipes.
Both products are made with 100% Italian tomatoes harvested at the perfect stage of ripeness. The choice simply depends on the texture and final result you would like to achieve.

Mutti Finely Chopped Tomatoes and Mutti Concentrated Tomato Paste are very different products and are designed for different culinary purposes. Mutti Finely Chopped Tomatoes combine finely chopped tomato pieces with tomato juice, making them ideal for recipes where the fresh taste and texture of tomatoes are an essential part of the dish.
Mutti Tomato Paste, on the other hand, is a highly concentrated tomato product, used in small quantities to enrich recipes with a more intense tomato flavour, richer colour and greater depth. For the best results, we recommend using each product for its intended purpose.
