The great thing about canned tomatoes is because consumers never see the actual tomato, growers will harvest them when they are fully ripe to get the best taste. Ripe tomatoes bruise easily, so the tomatoes we buy "fresh" often are picked green and gassed to ripen them after they are picked. Unfortunately, the gas will make unripe tomatoes turn red too. Canned tomatoes don't have that problem because they can be bruised and we'll never even know it. That doesn't effect the flavor. Since canning operations want the freshest tomatoes, often the hardest part for growers is coordinating their crop to be harvested at the right time -- canning factory want to have those tomatoes in cans within hours of harvest. Anyway, don't feel bad about canned tomatoes, for most Americans these will be the best tasting tomatoes outside of a few peak summer months when local tomatoes are available.

Thank you! A lot of people don't know that the pretty red tomatoes you see in your supermarket are often mushy, flavorless disappointments because they're usually not picked while ripe.
@TomatoWellness2 жыл бұрын
Hey Red Sauce America, BRAVO! People always think canned tomatoes are the inferior choices or the rejects, and as you point out, that is not the case! Thank you! We have a lot about this process on our page too for the whole USA industry.
@Tatjanak19892 жыл бұрын
A huge tip is to read the print on the tomato can. There‘s a number behind a letter. The number ought to be between 190 and 220 to provide the best, ripest tomatoes, as it means they were harvested between day 190-220 of the year - July to September. This is when the best tomatoes are canned.
@soothsayingProfit2 жыл бұрын
@@Galactic123 Combine with the fact that we bred supermarket tomatoes for looks over flavor. "ugly" tomatoes with lumps and bumps and lots of color variation taste so much better, but the same genes that dictate these appearances are also in charge of FLAVOR. So in their effort to make a tomato look uniformly pretty, they've lost all their flavor. This same kind of thing applied to Red Delicious apples: They've focused so much on making an apple look pretty on the supermarket shelves that everything else suffered for it. And now everyone is tired of them.
@TomatoWellness2 жыл бұрын
@@Tatjanak1989 I've not heard that before, but it seems like there's a little more to it then that. Depending on where the fields are has a lot to do with it. Often earlier in the year they start in the south and work their way up to Northern CA based on temps. Weather is probably the biggest factor and water on when the tomatoes will be ready. Additionally, when they're planted matters, as they may not need to stay in as long. Its an interesting theory but I think there are many additional factors you'd need to know as well.

I try n use them up in soups n stews so I have an excuse to 'splurge' on fresh veggies for the holidays. Always make Waldorf salad with a tiny smidge of horseradish...it's the first thing gone.

One of my ex's was a chef, lvl2 but working in that field. Oregano and marjoram are basically interchangeable. They have similar flavours, one just comes from the eastern Mediterranean the other the western end. I treat them the same with cooking. One has a slightly less pungent aromatic quality other slightly stronger. But adjust by taste. They are totally different species, but fill the same eco niche so similar flavour.

Canned Tomatoes are so useful for anything you just need them for without skin. My mom would make a soup that requires blanching the tomatoes, peeling the skin, cooking them in a pot with water... but then she realized: Why should I do that when I can buy canned tomatoes? And it ended up even better. And as of recently we've specifically gone out of our way to buy San Marzano tomatoes which are much more flavorful. I've since used San Marzanos exclusively if I'm going to use canned tomatoes, for making chili, or pasta sauce.

ok how cute was it when he tries the last dish and just half-shouts, "YES!" like a delighted little kid :'-) i respect this man bc not only does he honor and elevate humble ingredients; he also "gives permission" to laypeople, as a Michelin chef, to do away with stuffy fine-dining rules, like "every piece you cut should be the same size" "NEVER use a microwave" "take everything super seriously" "you MUST whisk your vinaigrette to a perfect complete emulsion" "ONLY fresh, don't insult me with frozen" --a lot of it, not all of it, is nonsense. He's very good at highlighting which "rules" are more important and will actually improve the development of the flavors and textures, such as your veg has to have enough space in the pan & your pasta has to cook in enough water to have room. He likes bite intrigue, convenience, hands-off approach when he can, resourcefulness, reinventing a savory component to be sweet and vice versa, and laughing whenever possible. I feel like my cooking style on my best day is kinda like his. I spent my whole childhood on the free lunch program at my school so the fact that he'd tackle that realm of the culinary arts is really cool. He has a good heart I feel like. Anyway great series.
