Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
- Q: What does "double concentrated 28-30%" mean?
- A: It means the tomatoes have been heavily reduced and strained to remove excess water until they reach a solid concentration of 28% to 30%. This gives the paste an intense, rich tomato flavor so a little goes a long way.
- Q: How can I use Natco Tomato Paste in everyday cooking?
- A: It is ideal for stirring directly into sautéed onions and garlic at the start of making curries, stews, Bolognese sauces, chilli con carne, or casseroles to build a deep, caramelized flavor base.
- Q: Is this tomato paste vegetarian and gluten-free?
- A: Yes, it consists purely of tomatoes and salt, making it 100% plant-based, vegan-friendly, and naturally gluten-free.
- Q: How should I store the leftover paste after opening the large 800g tin?
- A: Never store leftover tomato paste inside an opened metal can. Transfer the remaining paste into a clean glass or plastic airtight container, seal it tightly, store it in the refrigerator, and use it within 3 to 5 days (or freeze portions in an ice cube tray for longer storage).
