Cooked Tomato Sauces

Tomato sauce PPES3VL

When making a cooked tomato sauce, it is important to use a non reactive pot such as stainless steel or anodized aluminum. Indeed, tomato has a high level of acidity that might react with the metal of your pot and give a bad ‘metallic’ taste to the food. 

Possible issues:

  • The sauce is too pale: Add tomato paste
  • The sauce is too acid: Add a pinch of sugar
