The skin and seeds of the tomato are removed in a process called concasée. The pulpy flesh is then liquefied and strained.
No because the acid in the tomatoes won't allow the botulism to grow.
The cost of the higher specific gravity puree is higher because it is more concentrated due to a lower percentage of water. More tomatoes are used to make the same volume of puree if the specific gravity is higher. The specific gravity is a means of assessing how concentrated the puree is. More water is liberated from the tomato puree to make it more concentrated. More tomatoes are used, hence the higher cost.
Yes, tomato puree is healthy. Other than potential salt content, processed tomatoes may be healthier than raw tomatoes. The anti-oxidant (cancer fighting) compound found in tomatoes (lycopene) is much higher in cooked tomatoes. Just watch out for any additives! Instead of merely being restricted to the consumption of raw tomatoes, one should make use of tomato sauce in their diet to take complete advantage of its valuable lycopene anti-oxidants.
Pureed tomatoes will make a better sauce. While it is possible to boil whole tomatos down to make a great sauce, pureed tomatoes will simplify the process. If you desire chunky sauce, the whole tomatoes may work better.
well yes in 1 cup of tomato puree there is 4.1g (8%) of protein in it Hope this helps xoxoxox
Tomato Purée, enriches the flavour of the dish you're making. It strengthen the colour also, for example with a vegetable soup, tomato purée makes it richer tasting, more vibrant and thicken the sauce somewhat. Hope that helps :)
Tomatillos (or "Husk Tomatoes") can often be substituted for tomatoes. They are actually tropical berries and entirely unrelated to tomatoes, so your allergies shouldn't be triggered by them; do not confuse them with green tomatoes, however, which are exactly as advertised: green tomatoes.For tomato sauce, a blend of beet, carrot and onion puree can work well; the product "Nomato" markets several items using such a blend: ketchup, sauce, etc.
Tomato puree
First make sure your tomatoes are very ripe. Then peal, seed, and chop the tomatoes. Place a little olive oil in a hot sauce pan and add the tomatoes. Bring them to a simmer and simmer them uncovered very slowly for about an hour. If you want a chunky sauce, you can mash the tomatoes with a potato masher. If you want it smoother, put the tomatoes through a food mill or puree them in a blender. Then you can put them back in the pot and continue seasoning your sauce. Some dry garlic, oregano and thyme are usually used. Taste for salt and pepper.
