¿Qué es Passata?
Passata is an uncooked, strained tomato purée made from ripe, sieved tomatoes, resulting in a smooth, vibrant, and seedless product. Unlike canned diced tomatoes or paste, it offers a fresh, clean tomato flavor with a thinner consistency, ideal for building sauces and soups.
"Its smooth texture and bright flavor make it the ideal foundation for any sauce where you want the pure taste of tomato to shine without the interruption of seeds or skin."
