About Tomatensaus
Tomatensaus, or tomato sauce, is a versatile and flavorful condiment originating from Italian cuisine, widely used in dishes like pasta, pizza, and casseroles. Typically made with ripe tomatoes, olive oil, garlic, onions, and herbs such as basil and oregano, it offers a delicious balance of tangy and savory flavors. Nutritionally, tomato sauce is rich in vitamins A and C, potassium, and antioxidants like lycopene, known for supporting heart health and reducing inflammation. Its low calorie content makes it a healthy addition when prepared simply. However, store-bought versions may contain added sugars, salt, and preservatives, which can diminish its nutritional benefits. Opting for homemade tomatensaus or closely reading labels can ensure a cleaner and healthier option. Whether enjoyed as a base for hearty dishes or a dipping sauce, tomatensaus remains a staple in kitchens worldwide.
