Tomato Passata Recipe | How to Make Italian Tomato passata

Step 1

Check the tomatoes one by one, removing rotten, stained or bruised ones. Then wash them very well under running water. Finally put them in a bowl and start cutting them in half.

Step 2

With a knife, remove the seeds and all the internal part of the tomato, like to make small tomato boats. Now place the tomatoes in a rather large pot.

Step 3

Let them cook over low heat, covering the pan with a lid and stirring them from time to time, until they are smashed. Now take your tomato strainer machine and, with a ladle, begin to place the cooked tomatoes in the special slot.

Step 4

If the passata should still be too liquid, pour it with a small strainer, until you get the consistency you want.
