Tomato paste - was Re: Recipe conversion--Greco

uses in some of her recipes ... it's traditional in Italian cooking

and it has always been cooked for a long time (to make it more

concentrated) and it's full of good stuff. I think a good organic

tomato sauce is better though (like Muir Glen), and easier. The

canned stuff tastes metallic to me.<<<

I was wondering if it would be possible to make your own by (semi)

drying the tomatoes and then pureeing them in a food processor.

Anyone tried?
