Adding too much liquid, be it wine, water.
It is possible, but such a substitution is not always a great idea as tomato paste has a much more concentrated, stronger flavor and has less moisture. So the recipe with the replacement of tomato sauce will be more liquidy and have less of a tomato flavor to it.
There is over twice as much lycopene in ketchup than in tomato paste.
A standard can of tomato paste typically weighs around 6 to 8 ounces.
Two tablespoons of tomato paste can be substituted with approximately 1/2 cup of tomato sauce. This is because tomato paste is more concentrated than tomato sauce. If you're looking for a more precise substitution, you can mix 1 tablespoon of tomato paste with 3 tablespoons of water to achieve a similar consistency and flavor.
There is obviously no major demand for it

Tomato paste works!
That is a matter of personal taste, Tomato paste is condensed tomato sauce so its purpose in a sauce would be to thicken what you already have without spending the time to cook it down. I use one large can of tomato sauce and one small, one small can of stewed tomatoes ( use potato masher on them to reduce the big chunks) one can of tomato paste, one can of mushrooms ( I like them ) a package of schilling tomato sauce seasoning, and about 6 cut up cooked hot Italian sausage.
i think you should be more worried about the amount of cheese or processed meat you're putting on rather than the tomato paste. The tomato sauce is probably the healthiest thing on there. Also, I make homemade pizza quite a lot and have a great recipe for pizza sauce, rather than just using tomato paste. Fry up one choppedonion and 3/4 cloves of chopped garlic. Then add 1 tablespoon of dried basil and one tablespoon of dried oregano. Fry for a little bit then add 1 carton/500ml of passata and 2 small tins of tomato puree. Then add salt and pepper and half a small tin of water (tin from tomato puree). Simmer for ten mins then blend smooth. Makes a big batch that you can divide up and freeze for future use.
yes you can but you can only use a little bite not to much or it will taste funny
Straight? Hell yes. Diluted with 3 quarts of tomato paste? Not so much.
