About Canned concentrated tomato paste

Canned concentrated tomato paste is a thick product made by cooking tomatoes to remove much of their water, then packaging the paste in a can. It is typically deep red and smooth or slightly textured, with a concentrated, savoury tomato flavour.

It is used in small amounts to add tomato flavour and body to sauces, soups, and other cooked foods. Concentration and ingredients can vary, and the name does not state a precise solids level. This general category should not be assumed to be identical to a product specifically labelled double-concentrated tomato paste.
