I was taught not to waste food because my parents grew up that way. During WWII, foods weren’t as readily available as they are these days. Ration books were the way to get food and the buyer had to give the right ration stamp associated with the specific ration food item. That was the way to control the short food supply… those were tough times!
 
Sadly nowadays, the amount of food wasted in most Western countries is out of control. In Canada alone, there’s over $31 billion of food wasted annually which is roughly $1400.00 per household. It’s terrible when we start thinking about it and look at other countries where their population needs food. I won’t elaborate on the topic although I’m extremely tempted…
 
Over the years, I’ve been guilty of wasting food as well. Not a lot but enough to do something about it. I tried to find solutions to salvage what was left in my fridge or pantry. There is one food item that I had to throw out many times because I only needed a small quantity and didn’t need the rest of it. It’s the infamous Tomato Paste Leftover!
 
Many times a recipe calls for only a tablespoon or two of tomato paste and we are left with the rest of the can. We throw it away or leave it in our refrigerator until we might need it again (usually it spoils before we remember we have some in the fridge)! Well I have the perfect solution for your Tomato Paste Leftover…
 
In this video, I’ll be showing you a quick and easy way to keep your leftovers and reuse them for later. From now on, you won’t have to throw them out ever! Next time, there’s some tomato paste leftover after you use the little amount for your recipe, you’ll know exactly what to do!
Bon Appétit!
