Tomato Powder-Enriched Savory Tomato Sauce

A deeply flavored tomato sauce elevated with Eastanbul Tomato Powder—perfect for pasta, grilled vegetables, or as a dip with chips. Rich, concentrated, and bursting with umami thanks to the layered tomato flavor from both fresh tomatoes and powdered.

Chef’s Tip: Add a splash of pasta cooking water or a knob of butter at the end for extra gloss and depth.
