Make your OWN Tomato Pulp!




                                            Easy Tomato Pulp

Goodmorning :)!

I am going to show you today how to make the EASIEST Tomato Pulp ever... usually ready made tomato pulp do contain flour because it is used as a thickening agent to make the pulp look thick. So if you want an agent free pulp, make your own!

It will only take you 7 minutes to cook and this recipe will make around 1.5 cups so if you do want more, amend ingredients accordingly. If you want to make in bulk, you can freeze the pulp and it can last you for months!!

Ingredients:


  • 8 Big Tomatoes
  • Water

Directions:

  • Boil water in a deep pan
  • With the tip of a knife, cut the top of the tomato (remove its eyes as they say!)
  • At the base of each tomato, make a criss cross cut
  • When the water is boiling, put the tomatoes in for about 3-4 minutes
  • After about 4 minutes, remove and put them in cold water and leave for some time
  • When completely cooled, remove the peel and de-seed them
  • Chop roughly and blend in a mixer until a smooth pulp is achieved
  • Use as required either for pasta sauces and stews, and other recipes
Tip: Can be either used as fresh or frozen and it can be stored.
