Tomato Paste Cold Break “C.B” 36-38 %
Processed tomato paste "concentrate" is made by concentrating the juice or pulp extracted from fresh, ripe, and mature red tomatoes (Lycopersicon/Lycopersicum esculentum). The tomatoes are strained to remove skins, seeds, and any coarse or hard particles, resulting in a smooth final product. These concentrates exhibit a rich red color, appealing flavor and aroma, and a uniform, thick texture. They are free from fibers, foreign substances, and any unpleasant or off-putting tastes or aftertastes. Our products are produced in facilities operating under internationally recognized food safety and quality management systems (e.g., BRCGS, HACCP, GMP). Additionally, all products are fully compliant with HALAL and Kosher requirements.
