Tomato Paste is a concentrated and smooth paste made from ripe tomatoes. The production process involves boiling the tomatoes for several hours to eliminate the excess water, removing the seeds and skin, and boiling the remaining liquid until it becomes a thick and rich concentrate. This final product has a bright red color, a fresh and rich tomato flavor and contains no unwanted additives or artificial sugars. It is also a good source of lycopene, a powerful antioxidant found in cooked tomatoes. The shelf life of Tomato Paste is approximately 18 to 24 months and it should be stored between 10°C and 24°C. Foodcom S.A. provides Tomato Paste in aseptic bags in steel drums weighing 230 kg.
Due to its thick consistency and delicious taste, Tomato Paste is widely used in pizzerias, restaurants and catering companies as a base for sauces in various tomato dishes such as pizza and pasta.
