#10 Cans Revisited
So I saw, #10 cans of diced tomatoes @ $2.32 ea and #10 cans of tomato sauce
@ $2.82 ea. Bought two of each. Now, what do I do with this big a can? How about a tried and true receipe. TIA, Spud ps. And we all know Sheldon can spoon 200 ice cube trays an hour with his cats licking the spoon between cubes. So skip it and stay on topic. -- |

Tomato paste, there's 96 meals in a #10 can. Llamas. Sheldon even thinks tomato paste is made "right in the field." and even located Sam's Club as a source where to buy cheap paste! Holy shit, do you think Walmart can compete?! "How about a tried and true receipe." ? That's all I'm asking. A simple mass produced receipe. And I'm going to use the dog gone big ass #10 cans! Thank you kindly, Spud |

What's the point of making something and freezing it when you have no storage problem with what you have? - aem |

Sam Walmart, moron. > I only read a few posts in the thread, but I have no comprehension. Idiot... tomatoes have been field processed for many years, so have many other fruits and vegetables... same with seafood processed at sea. http://www.blackwell-synergy.com/doi...1971.tb06372.x |

A #10 can of sauce or whole tomatoes is not very much, it's not concentrated so even if you add seasonings and some aromatics it will cook down about 10-25pct, each will make about 3-4 quarts of pasta sauce, frozen in one pint/one quart containers are about right for one pound of pasta. But tomato paste is concentrated by about 75 pct, so turning it to sauce a #10 can will yield about 2 1/2-3 gallons... unless you own an Italian restaurant #10 cans of paste are a bit much. And pure paste doesn't make very good sauce, paste is too finely processed... paste is best used as an addition to thicken canned sauce and whole tomatoes, or reconstituted to make tomato soup or tomato juice... a #10 can of tomato paste will make about 3 gallons of tomato soup or about 4 gallons of tomato juice. |

Dump out the tomatoes and make Boston Brown Bread. Traditionally it's supposed to be a coffee can, but what the heck. Bill Ranck Blacksburg, Va. |

Good idea. I do that when making cioppino-I make the base ahead of time and then at dinnertime/serving time, I add the seafood and cook it til the seafood is done. If I make the base ahead of time,I can split it into portions, and take out what I need for however many servings I want. Christine |

Idiot... tomatoes have been field processed for many years, so have many other fruits and vegetables... same with seafood processed at sea. http://www.blackwell-synergy.com/doi...1971.tb06372.x Moron. When was the last time you've been to a tomato processing plant or better yet, a tomato field? copyright 1972. Great stuff Sheldon. It was an idea that never caught on. Spud, who lives and works in the tomato industry. |
