Directions
Homemade Tomato Paste,This makes a great gift and is so useful in your cupboard! Adapted from Razzle Dazzle Recipes and changed a bit! This may be canned or poured into ice cube trays and frozen, to use when needed!,this turned out great. since I’m stocking my freezer with this, I find it better to double it. also since it takes so long to make, I think it makes more sense to double it unless you don’t have the freezer space. i found myself using this interchangeably as tomato SAUCE also- I just add a little water to make it like sauce. even more reason to double this recipe- to have quantities on hand for both paste and sauce! thanks so much!!,Once you press through the sieve could you use the remaining juice for tomato juice. It smells unbelievably delicious and was wondering if it would make a good tomato juice. Thanks
