Frequently Asked Questions:

What are crushed tomatoes?

Crushed tomatoes are tomatoes of any variety that have been harvested, crushed and then packed in their own juices (typically). DeLallo San Marzano San Marzano Style Crushed Tomatoes are Italian plum tomatoes that are peeled with steam and then crushed into chunks. A can of crushed tomato includes small pieces and a thicker pulp within puréed tomato or juices. Crushed tomatoes break down well with some simmering.

Can I make my own crushed tomatoes?

Yes, you can make your own crushed tomatoes from peeled fresh tomatoes or a can of whole peeled tomatoes. Chop the peeled tomatoes into small pieces with a knife or crush them with a potato masher. Homemade crushed tomatoes will contain more seeds than purchased crushed tomatoes, since the seeds are removed in the process of canning crushed tomatoes.

Is tomato passata the same as crushed tomatoes?

No, tomato passata, sometimes called “tomato purée” or “strained tomatoes,” is made up of tomatoes that have been crushed, puréed and then strained. Passata is thicker than crushed or diced tomatoes, and has no skins or seeds, as they are removed completely in the process. Passata and crushed tomatoes can be substitutes for each other in terms of flavor and color, but the texture will be different.

What are the best ways to use crushed tomatoes?

Homemade pasta sauces, soups, pizza sauce, chili, and meatloaf.
