How to Use Tomato Powder
Tomato powder has countless uses in the kitchen. It is commonly used to season sauces or as a thickening agent for soups and sauces. It is also perfect for coloring dough, such as pasta or bread. To make a simple and quick tomato soup, mix 20 g of powder with 250 ml of cold water and heat it while stirring for about 8 minutes. This will result in a delicious, bright red soup with a rich tomato flavor.
Tomato powder can also be added to smoothies, providing a unique depth of flavor. It is a great addition to both hearty winter and refreshing summer smoothies.
Traditional Uses in the Kitchen
Tomato powder is often used to color dough, such as for pasta. It can be easily combined with spinach powder or beetroot powder to create colorful, flavorful dough. It is also perfect for baking bread, focaccia, grissini, and other baked goods, adding both an intense tomato flavor and a vibrant color.
What is Tomato Powder Made From?
Our tomato powder is made from pure tomato concentrate, which is first dried using mechanical methods to remove the water. The drying process occurs through a spray-drying system, where the atomized tomato concentrate is sent to the top of a cylindrical tower. An upward airflow collides with the product on its way down, dehydrating it as it falls.
This special processing method allows dehydration at low temperatures, preserving the natural flavors and nutrients of the tomatoes. The result is a fine powder that can be used both in industrial food production and at home for soups, sauces, or dry mixes.
