My chef friend is arguing with me and IMO she is just straight up fucking wrong. Cooking tomatoes to death during the canning process isn’t going to do any favors for the texture or flavor. Every canned diced tomato i’ve had has been gross (and the dice is always too big and ugly)
I think she’s 100% confusing a comparison between QUALITY canned tomatoes i.e. real san marzano tomatoes versus shitty greenhouse grown tomatoes but she’s insisting that no actually canned tomatoes are just better
I just want to get a consensus but i’m going to continue to disagree with anyone else who is wrong about this
My gf is a chef and says canned is better than supermarket fresh, but homegrown are better than canned
If you’ve ever had some good heirloom tomatoes off the vine you’ll swear your whole life has been a lie.
This is correct imo
