Boasting a rich, long history, the Hunt’s company — brand name for preserved tomato products — was founded in 1888 in California by brothers Joseph and William Hunt who originally named it The Hunt Brothers Fruit Packing Co.
The tomatoes are grown in sun-kissed Oakdale, California, producing only the reddest, juiciest vine-ripened tomatoes. Tomatoes are picked at the peak of freshness. From farm to can, the process takes just a few hours, assuring us of 100-percent natural tomatoes with no artificial preservatives added.
Today, Hunt’s creates more sweet memories for families to savor through the years by adding more flavors to its tried-and-tested and time-cherished tomato sauce. But if you don’t like it sweet, there’s Hunt’s Tomato Basil & Cheese spaghetti sauce which is sour like Italian spaghetti sauce.
Fact is, with Hunt’s many wonderful, flavorful tomato and spaghetti sauces (that are full of lycofiber, too, to help prevent disease and promote good health), working moms can serve up superstar meals to their families every day — no sweat, no fuss, no kidding!
To further help moms become kitchen superstars, Hunt’s is launching a series of webisodes that center on recipes of superstar quality that busy moms can whip up in no time. Think Rachel Ray’s 30-minute meals. Hosted by Inez Bernardo, a home-cook mom, each Hunt’s Kitchen Superstar webisode runs for just a minute and a half (so don’t blink now) and focuses on superb recipes that are short in preparation but long in enjoyment.
Hunt’s gets everybody cooking, too, at an exciting cookfest where participants, divided into four teams, are presented with a box of mystery ingredients, a la Food Network’s Chopped basket, and challenged to whip up a dish using Hunt’s products, based on a recipe provided to each team. The recipes include: pork estofado, tomato chicken curry, chicken pesto and mushroom melt, and sardine pasta. As you can see, it’s a no-brainer matching the ingredients with the recipes.
On top of the cook-off, we indulge our taste buds with the most fabulous hors d’oeuvres and desserts by Swiss Italian chef Angelo Faoro, some of which were made using Hunt’s tomato sauce. Yes, there’s even a tomato jelly dessert.
This event was hosted by Radio DJ Delamar with actor/host/model Gino dela Peña at Fab restaurant, Holiday Inn Galleria.
