Frequently Asked Questions
How do I substitute this for fresh tomatoes or paste?
As a general guide, about 3 tablespoons of tomato powder mixed with a cup of water can substitute for a cup of tomato puree, though this varies by recipe and desired consistency.
Does it need refrigeration?
No — like other dried powders, it keeps well in a cool, dry pantry away from moisture. See the Storage & Packaging tab for details.
