7 reasons why you should always have tomato sauce at home
Sometimes it’s the simple things that make everyday life easier. A high-quality tomato sauce in a jar is such a kitchen favorite. It gives you flexibility, saves time and is the basis for countless dishes – without compromising on quality or taste.
It’s reassuring to know, especially on days when you’re in a hurry: A sauce made from the best organic ingredients is waiting in the store cupboard to make a wholesome dish in no time at all.
Here are 7 ways you can use tomato sauce in a variety of ways – quickly, easily and with pleasure.
1. the classic: pasta in just a few minutes
A jar of tomato sauce, your favorite pasta and maybe some fresh herbs or grated hard cheese – that’s all you need for an all-round harmonious dish.
While the pasta is cooking, gently heat the sauce in a pan. In less than 15 minutes, you have a meal on the table that is both warming and filling. You can add roasted pine nuts or roasted vegetables to refine your dish.
2. as a base for a quick vegetable soup
When it gets chilly outside or you want something warming, tomato soup is ideal. Simply take tomato sauce with a little vegetable stock, fresh or frozen vegetables and a dash of high-quality olive oil and you’ll have an aromatic soup in no time at all.
Tip: Supplemented with red lentils or white beans, it is particularly filling and provides valuable vegetable proteins.
3. perfect for oven dishes
Whether lasagne, vegetable casserole or stuffed peppers – tomato sauce is the aromatic basis for many oven dishes. You don’t have to spend a lot of time cooking and can concentrate on the fresh ingredients.
Simply cut the vegetables, add the sauce, top with cheese or a plant-based alternative and pop it in the oven. While everything is cooking, you have time for yourself.
4. quick shakshuka
A jar of tomato sauce with a little paprika, onions and spices becomes a spicy base for shakshuka. Form hollows, pour in the eggs and leave to set – and you have an uncomplicated dish for breakfast, lunch or dinner.
Served with fresh bread, the result is a real moment of indulgence – without any great effort.
5. as a pizza or tarte flambée base
Planning a spontaneous pizza evening? With a ready-made tomato sauce, the most important step is already done. Roll out the dough, spread the sauce, top with whatever you fancy – and the aroma of freshly baked pizza wafts through your kitchen.
The tomato sauce also cuts a fine figure on flatbread or as a base for savory tarts.
6. for hearty bowls and stir-fries
Tomato sauce is a wonderful way to round off the flavor of rice, quinoa or millet dishes. Simply mix with roasted vegetables or add to your bowl as a fruity component.
You can also combine the tomato sauce with chicken, chickpeas, tofu or fried halloumi to create a balanced meal.
7. when things have to go really fast
Sometimes there is hardly any time to cook. This is exactly when the value of a well-stocked larder becomes apparent. Tomato sauce can:
- serve as a dip for baked vegetables
- Making sandwiches and wraps juicier
- can be used as a base for a quick tomato and cream sauce
- Refine gnocchi or Schupfnudeln in just a few minutes
This turns a few ingredients into a hot meal – often in under 20 minutes.
