SarahS2018 0 Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 I am thinking of making this ketchup recipe https://40aprons.com/whole30-ketchup-recipe/ to add a further condiment to my arsenal. So my question is what is the UK equivalent for tomato paste and tomato sauce? Thank you for your responses in advance. Link to post Share on other sites
Moderators ShannonM816 5638 Posted September 22, 2018 Moderators Share Posted September 22, 2018 Tomato paste is thick, concentrated tomatoes pureed then cooked until it's reduced into a texture that's actually pretty close to a thick ketchup texture -- according to Wikipedia, in the UK it might be called puree or concentrate. Googling, it looks like tomato sauce here might be called passata there? It's tomatoes that are cut small, or sometimes pureed, and cooked but not cooked down to make the thick concentrate that tomato paste is. Hopefully this is helpful, and maybe someone from the UK with more direct knowledge will chime in if I'm wrong. Link to post Share on other sites
