Kagome has a long history with tomatoes – dating back to when Ichitaro Kanie first brought tomatoes to Japan in 1899. For more than 100 years, Kagome has studied this fascinating fruit and become an expert in growing tomatoes and processing tomato-based products. Today, Kagome produces customized, tomato-based sauces for the world's largest restaurant chains from our state-of-the art facilities. Below is an overview of our most popular tomato-based sauces.

Pizza Sauce Sauce, the foundation for most pizzas, is a critical ingredient that must be just right. Kagome's pizza sauces are crafted from vine-ripened red tomatoes, fresh herbs, and authentic Italian spices. Kagome produces both chunky and smooth pizza sauces in a variety of textures and flavors. Your sauces can be developed for delivery fully-prepared (ready-to-use) or concentrated in packaging best suited to your needs.

		Marinara Sauce Marinara sauce is a staple item on many menus. Kagome's marinara sauce is not only a perfect complement to pasta dishes, but is also a great dipping sauce for finger foods like fried mozzarella cheese sticks and a topping for calzones. You can even use Kagome's marinara sauce to add a little zest to meat dishes such as chicken, veal parmigiano, and grilled seafood. It is delicious on hot sandwiches as a lower calorie alternative to mayonnaise or as a base for soups, risottos and rice dishes.
		Barbeque Sauce Smoky-sweet, and a little tangy, BBQ sauces are a popular accompaniment to chicken, steak, and pork. Kagome offers a wide variety of BBQ sauces from the classic favor to something a little off the beaten track, like whiskey, honey or citrus BBQ sauce. Kagome can also craft a signature BBQ sauce for you.
		Salsa Salsa has become a catch phrase for a mix of chopped/ diced/ crushed ingredients from herbs and spices, and a variety of regional peppers – prepared thick or thin, spicy or mild, savory or sweet, or even fire-roasted. Kagome has mastered salsa and can create just the combination that you are looking for to complement your menu items.
		Enchilada Sauce You don't have to travel or live south of the border to get great enchiladas. Kagome knows the secret to great enchilada sauce – both traditional red and tomatillo prepared chunky or smooth. Kagome's enchilada sauces are not only the key to authentic enchiladas, but also a tasty topping to nachos, tamales, burritos and even beans.
		Cocktail Sauce Cocktail sauce is a must-have side for shrimp and oysters as well as other shellfish. The varieties of cocktail sauce are endless, but Kagome knows how to make them – from basic recipe to those with a twist like tequila or wasabi. Kagome can work with you to fine tune a cocktail recipe that has just the right taste for your seafood.
