Notes
Helpful Recipe Tips
- When you cook out your tomato paste what you're doing is removing the potential metallic taste it can carry.
- Tomato paste helps thicken the tomato sauce. But, cooking it a little longer can help more of the water evaporate as well. In turn will cause the sauce to be much thicker.
