Description

Add depth and authentic flavor to your cooking with our traditional Turkish Tomato Paste, known as salça. Unlike the milder, sweeter pastes you may be used to, our salça is made from tomatoes that have been slowly simmered to bring out an intense, concentrated flavor. This results in a paste that is incredibly rich, savory, and robust. A small amount goes a long way in transforming a dish.

This versatile pantry essential is a cornerstone of many Turkish and Middle Eastern recipes and can be used to:

  • Create Rich Sauces: Forms the flavor base for savory sauces, stews, and soups.
  • Enhance Meat Dishes: Used in marinades and rubs to add a deep, umami-rich flavor to grilled or roasted meats.
  • Boost Flavor in Grains: Stir a spoonful into rice or bulgur for a flavorful and colorful side dish.
  • Make Traditional Turkish Dishes: An essential component of classic dishes like menemen (Turkish scrambled eggs) and lentil soup.
