About Tomato sauce
Tomato sauce is a versatile, flavorful condiment typically made from ripe tomatoes, olive oil, garlic, onions, and various herbs like basil and oregano. Originating in Italian cuisine, it has become a staple in dishes worldwide, such as pasta, pizza, and rice-based meals. Packed with vitamins A and C, tomato sauce is a rich source of antioxidants like lycopene, which supports heart health and may reduce inflammation. It’s naturally low in calories, making it a healthy addition to many recipes. However, store-bought varieties can often contain added sugar and high levels of sodium, which may pose concerns for those monitoring their intake. Opting for homemade versions or choosing sauces with minimal additives ensures the flavor and nutritional benefits of tomatoes are maximized. Tomato sauce serves as both a practical base for countless meals and a nourishing choice when consumed mindfully.
