- Alupis 5y agoTomato Paste (in my experience) is a lot more reduced/dry/concentrated than the puree in the picture above. It's also a lot darker red in color.
- OJFord 5y agoYes I would say the ones I typically get are too (in the UK). The colouring is a bit off there - I was just glad to find one showing the consistency roughly.
- OJFord 5y agoProbably yes. I think it's sold here (UK) under that name too - for some reason (not sure if justified) I imagine that being a jar rather than a tube. But anyway, yes, a tomato by any name ~would smell as sweet~ reduced that much to a sort of jam-like consistency. If anything it's too thick for pizza - but oil's going on anyway right, so I just mix it with a bit (and usually some chopped chillies) and it's perfectly spreadable without being too saucy.
