What do you do when
What do you do when you have loads of tomatoes? Make tomato paste! In Italian it's called estratto di pomodoro; in the Palermo area where Pina lives folk call it 'astrattu'. The ingredients you need are non irrigated tomatoes, strong sunshine and salt. Pina makes the process look elegant and easy.
If you want to try making this yourself, allow 100g of non iodised salt for every 10kg of tomatoes, which should result (Pina says) in a kilo of 'concentrato' - another word for this paste.
For the meat stew, use around 500g of pork ribs, and 500g of pork shoulder steaks, one onion, 2 heaped tablespoons of good quality tomato paste (make sure it is sweet and savoury, not sharp), black pepper, 2 litres of water.
'Siccagno' refers to the way these tomatoes are not irrigated. The actual variety of tomatoes can have also names like Ruccaloru, Pizzutello e Valledolmo.
Big thanks to the cultural association 'Ciauru ri astrattu' part of Pro Loco Aspra in their help organising this session with Pina. You can find them on Facebook.
