Our Tomato Paste is a thick and smooth product that only contains mature, clean & hand-picked tomatoes as its ingredient. It acts as a major ingredient in most recipes. Tomato paste provides nutrition, vitamins, minerals, and lycopene, a phytochemical, making it a healthy addition to recipes. The final brix of 28°-30° is produced by simmering fresh tomatoes until they begin to break apart. They’re then strained to remove the skin and seeds, and processed until their moisture evaporates and they become a thick paste.
