The Spice Way Tomato Powder - (8 oz) dried tomatoes made into a powder used for cooking - Dried Tomato Powder

The best pantry addition! Great quality Spices. Tomato flavor is such a boost to sauces and soups it’s also great sprinkled on Potato Chips.

Excellent product! I use 2T powder with 2T of water to make tomato paste for lasagna. So much easier than having to buy it canned or in a tube. It really thickens the sauce nicely and adds deeper flavor. I will continue to purchase.

Morning smoothies are good, but on cold mornings, you want warm soup. I use this tomato powder to make cup soups. Just put this in a cup with freeze-dried onion and consomme powder, pour in hot water and microwave for a few minutes with your favorite vegetables, celery or carrots, and your soup is ready to serve. Of course, you may prefer to use canned tomatoes or fresh tomatoes, but those can't compete with the ease of this tomato powder. The tomato powder is made from only seasonal tomatoes, you can immediately enjoy the original flavor of tomatos without worrying about additives. I purchased 8 oz. which may seem like a small amount, but the tomatoes are so concentrated that even a small amount was enough. It can be used not only for soups, but also as a substitute for ketchup when you are worried about the sugar content of ketchup, to add richness to tomato sauce, or to knead into bread dough, etc. It can be used in many ways with the ease that only powder can provide.

A must for non-gardening tomato lovers. Since discovering that supermarket tomatoes no longer carry flavor (and I am unwilling to spend the outrageous prices for 'heirloom' tomatoes) I thought I'd never enjoy a BLT again. Sprinkle a bit of this mixed with some salt over bland supermarket tomato slices and you will notice a 1000% improvement in flavor. I know, of course adding concentrated tomatoes to a tomato would make it taste more like a tomato, but this means cheap veggies can taste like more expensive ones with satisfying authentic flavor. I love a good food hack and now I can enjoy a BLT like the old days. Makes highly colored bread (these tomatoes produce a very orange tint) with intense flavor. Mix with some Italian spices and cheeses for pizza crust or breadsticks. Add a spoonful to sauces or beef stew instead of paste. Add to mayo for a quick burger sauce. Even sweets can benefit. Add a few spoonfuls to vanilla cake batter for a deep mystery flavor. [Anyone over 40 will know this as tomato soup cake, but why not reinvent the wheel now and again? In fact, a tablespoon or two in a mug of hot milk is a quick, satisfying soup...] Add to ice cream batter with nutmeg and a dash of balsamic vinegar for "ketchup" flavored ice cream. It's as good a pantry staple as tomato paste and maybe a bit more versatile. The product itself is fantastic and good quality. The star reduction is for the resealable packaging, which almost never works well with any powdered product. Stuff (namely the product itself) invariably gets in the grooves and it will never seal properly again. Because this product does not use fillers or anti-caking agents it becomes clumpy/almost crystalline if exposed to moisture. It can still be used, but I highly recommend transferring it to a more reliable air-tight container once opened.

I only just opened it as I have another brand that wasn't quite empty. Just tasted it now and it's really tasty, just what I was looking for. It has a good seal, and tastes very fresh. Very happy with the purchase.

Very good product. No o will order again

I ordered two 8 oz bags of tomato powder. Well, both the labels were identical. But one bag was smaller and one bag was bigger. Still, the weights were the same. The problem is that the Tomato powder in the smaller bag was obviously of much poorer quality. It was all hard as a rock and clumped together. It was a darker color and a coarser grind than the big bag. Oddly enough, the smaller bag had an expiration date one month beyond the bigger bag. But I wouldn't use the contents of that smaller bag for anything-- it was that obviously bad. You can see it in the photo, to an extent. I tried to break up the thick chunk of matted tomato powder in the smaller bag with a hammer, so it's quality could be seen in the photo. But the photo doesn't do the difference justice. Couldn't even find any contact information to make the situation right. Update: Well, I wrote this review and the company ended up responding to my review and offering a very satisfactory solution to the problem. I would venture to buy from them again, after all. Rating change to five stars because any company can accidentally let a bad product slip through, but not all companies have great customer service like this one.

There was a small hole in the bag n it leaked n with humidity make the other item sticky. Had to put a piece of tape over the hole till I could transfer it out of the original package which is not what I wanted to do. Ordered this item before n put in a jar and it got hard. Ordered another n was going to keep it in the sealed bag but had hole in it. So I’m guessing this will get hard as well. I’ve yet to use this product because of this issue and I will not order again. It was a waste of money.
