How to preserve tomato and pepper puree without refrigeration

This is a lovely info. Thanks a lot for all you do. I love your blog

Wow like seriously, I love dis will try it. But for how long can it stay

Hi Mr adela,
By frying it, you're getting half of the work done therefore the flavor wouldn't be altered. To re-hydrate the puree, simply add stock to it.

if de-hydrated well, it could stay for up to 3 days and more.

welldone dear

Thanks Chi

Thanks for the the kitchen tip. I guess one can do this with a pepper and onion sauce as well?

I remember this, my dad used to fry pepper for us like this when we went to the boarding house, since there was no pepper in the school food, he'd bring all the way to Ondo from Abuja and the pepper would last for almost 2wks. Memoriess.

Thanks Betty 🙂

this is fine

thanks.

Hi. Thanks for the tip. Please does this preservation also apply to stew? Like if I just store my cooked tomato sauce this way, would it last up to a week?

Pls can u store it for up to 6 months?

Yes you can but how you prepare it matters alot so you don't get microbes into the jar which would spoil it
(1) Sterilize the jar before pouring the paste into it. To do that, you'd need to boil the jars for sometime including the lids. pour the paste into the jars,top with oil and cover with the lid then boil again making sure the jars are fully submerged in the water.
(2) This can now be stored in cartons or your kitchen cabinet. this can stay for up to a year.

Please what can be done to get rid of the sour taste in tomato and pepper puree after it was boiled but it not preserved for 3 days
