The Tradition Lives On

Tomatoes and all the Extras
Passatta Made Easy
Prep The Tomatoes
Wash those juicy beauties, remove the stems, and chop them up. No need to be perfect, just get them pot ready!
Tip: Set aside any bruised or overripe tomatoes to ensure the best flavour.
Simmer & Soften
Place the tomatoes in a large pot and simmer gently for 20–30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they’re soft and saucy. Your kitchen will smell amazing.

Pass The Passtta
Run the cooked tomatoes through a food mill to separate the skins and seeds. What's left is silky smooth passatta gold.
For a finer texture, pass it through a second time.

Bottle The Love
Add a fresh basil leaf to each jar, then pour in your passata. Seal tightly and process in a water bath to lock in the taste of summer all year long. Properly sealed, your jars can be enjoyed for up to two years.
