How to store tomato parmesan cream sauce?
The sauce keeps well in the fridge for a few days. However, the frozen sauce may lose its original texture.
Can you make the low-fat version of this sauce?
We are not in favor of making this sauce with low-fat alternatives for heavy cream. The acidity in the tomatoes may curdle the milk protein quickly and leave an undesirable texture in the sauce.
How can you create a vegan version of this recipe?
For a vegan tomato parmesan cream sauce, you will have to use any non-dairy cream or milk. There are no options for adding the cheese. Butter can be replaced by margarine or simply – olive oil.
Is it necessary to use sugar in tomato parmesan cream sauce?
We have added one teaspoon of sugar to the recipe because when we add sugar to simmering tomato sauce, it helps cut the acidity and creates a flavor balance in the sauce.
Which one is better – homemade or canned tomato paste?
We are used to putting canned tomato paste for the sake of convenience in our recipes. They are filled with dense tomato concentrate, which is not even very flavorful. Homemade tomato paste has a rich flavor if you have used the right kind of tomatoes. Making tomato paste at home is a little bit of a hassle, but you can make and store the prepared paste in an ice cube tray. When frozen, remove it from the tray and fill it in a Ziploc bag with a label. Use when required, and you can keep them in the freezer for even a year.
