tomato powder (SD)

Ｓａｉｄ　ｂｙ　ｒｅｔａｉｌｓ：＂Ｔhis product has a flavor so rich and tomato-ey you just won't believe it until you taste it. It is simply the sweetest red tomatoes of the crop, from tomato paste concentrate 28-30% brix, spray-dried into a fine powder. The main reason our customers buy this product is for the times when they need a little more tomato sauce or paste, but hate to open up a whole can. ＂ Ｓａｉｄ　ｂｙ　ｕｓｅｒ： " I have a wonderful phyllo-dough appetizer recipe which calls for 2 Tblsp. of tomato paste, so whenever I made it, I automatically had to figure out something to make for dinner which would use up the rest of the paste. Now, I mix 1 part tomato powder with 4 parts water for tomato paste, until I have as much as I need. Store the tomato powder in your refrigerator, where it will last indefinitely. While it will not spoil on your shelf either, it is very hydroscopic and will clump or cake in an environment with even moderate humidity.." Once you try this tomato powder, you will be surprised at how many other uses for it you will find. If you make your own pasta, tomato powder adds a lovely flavor as well as color to it. Sprinkle on pizza, bread or salads for flavor enhancement. Add to homemade French, Russian or 1000 Island dressing. The powder also can be used to thicken sauces, stews and gumbos.
