TOMATO PASTE PROCESSING TYPES
-
Hot break
As the name implies, tomatoes are pre-cooked at 90 to 95 degrees, causing total loosening of the tomato texture, so that when some of the fruit or tomato texture is smoothed, it is separated with its water.
-
Cold break
As the name implies, this method’s preheating is done at a lower temperature than the preceding method (hot break) (at a temperature of 75 degrees), hence there isn’t much of a necessity for a vacuum system.
