Tomato is the most-used vegetable in everyday cooking, working both fresh in salads and cooked as the base of a sauce. Keep fresh tomatoes at room temperature, as the fridge robs them of their flavour and aroma.

The most popular tomato dishes include tomato pastas, tomato soup, oven-roasted tomatoes and a tomatoey chicken bake. The sauce gets a deeper flavour when you simmer crushed tomatoes for 15–20 minutes and finish with a pinch of sugar or a dash of balsamic to round off the acidity.

Oven-roasted cherry tomatoes are ready in about 15 minutes at 200 °C and go well with pasta, chicken and cheeses. You can replace crushed tomatoes with whole tinned tomatoes crushed in the pan – the result often tastes fresher.

Cherry tomatoes, plum tomatoes and large beefsteak tomatoes are not interchangeable: small tomatoes are used for roasting and salads, plum tomatoes for sauces thanks to their firm flesh. In winter, tinned tomatoes often taste better than greenhouse tomatoes.

In Ruokaboksi's tomato recipes the ingredients come pre-measured, so a weeknight tomato pasta or soup comes together without a trip to the shop and without half-used tins left in the fridge.
