Organic Tomato Pulp
What it is
This is a product made from ripe, organic tomatoes that have been processed into a thick pulp. It is a versatile ingredient that forms the base for many tomato-based dishes. The tomatoes are typically crushed and sometimes strained to achieve a smooth consistency. It is a convenient way to incorporate the flavor of fresh tomatoes into your cooking without the need for extensive preparation.

To use organic tomato pulp, simply open the container and add it to your cooking.
