About Tomato products, canned, puree, without salt added
This versatile ingredient is made from cooked and strained tomatoes, resulting in a smooth, thick consistency that serves as a base for countless recipes. The cooking process concentrates the natural sugars and flavors, creating a rich taste that enhances sauces, soups, and stews. Without added salt, it provides a pure tomato flavor that allows cooks to control the sodium content in their dishes.
Nutritionally, this ingredient offers several benefits. It contains lycopene, an antioxidant that becomes more bioavailable when tomatoes are cooked. The 1.9g of fiber per 100g supports digestive health, while the modest 1.7g of protein contributes to daily protein intake. With only 38 calories per 100g and minimal fat content, it's a light addition to meals that can help create satisfying, nutrient-dense dishes. The 9g of carbohydrates provide energy, primarily from natural sugars.
In the kitchen, this ingredient shines as a foundation for pasta sauces, pizza bases, and braising liquids. It's essential in dishes like shakshuka, where eggs are poached in a spiced tomato sauce, and forms the backbone of many curry recipes. For those monitoring their sodium intake, the unsalted version allows for precise seasoning control while still providing the depth of flavor that tomatoes bring to cooking. It's also useful for adding body to vegetable soups or as a quick base for homemade ketchup when combined with vinegar and spices.
