      What about browning the Sofrito first then take it out and blend it? That way you can get more flavor from the vegetables with the Maillard reaction and you can still achieve that creamy texture that you're talking about.
      If you blend the Sofrito first the vegetables will release too much water and you won't be able to get the Maillard reaction. I think it was evident in the clip you showed in this video.

    The parmigiano regiano rind is something i always do in my alfredo sauce. I slice it in half twice, length and width wise, to break it up a little. I never thought to do it in a red sauce, but it does add flavor and stuff, and using the rind like that makes it an amazing snack and adds a bit of flavor.
    Making the perfect tomato sauce is something i want to do as a chef. It is my number 1 goal right now, and i find myself coming back to your videos in the furtherance of that goal.

    One small addition I would make: stuff whole cloves into the onion halves to create a studded onion.

It was something my grandmother always did and is such a bomb of nostalgia for me.

      Blending the sofrito is a good idea, but not blending the sauce at the end. If you're going to hand crush the tomatoes to avoid breaking the seeds and making it taste sour, why would you then make that time completely wasted?

  • @AlmightyAphrodite
    @AlmightyAphrodite 5 місяців тому

    I love the blender too, but I also got myself a foodmill last year and thats my all time favorite go to. It sort of does what a blender does, but way less aggressive so the texture and form of the food doesn't completely change. I absolutely love it for tomato sauce, as it perfectly seperates the skins from all the rest and it doesn't destroy the little tomato pits or seeds, as blended seeds could potentially release a somewhat bitter taste. There's different inserts/grates for the mill, depending on what you want like seperating skins or grind all of it through togheter (sort of like a mortar and pestle idea exept its ground through a grate.)
    I use the blender mostly for soup, but I actually use both as I love roasting the veggies whole and simmering everything in the soup for while. Then I'll pass it through the foodmill to get rid of skins and such and at the end I'll blend it for a smooth as silk soup ❤

    The parm rind in the sauce works, and I've done it before. However, it makes the sauce taste of Parmigiano. As I've gotten further into cooking authentic Italian food, I prefer simple and clean flavors, so I want the sauce to taste of tomato and I will add cheese when mounting the pasta and sauce together.
    Lately I've been making pomodoro sauce with just peeled San Marzano tomatoes, passata, and fresh basil.

    in fact, the production processes of the two cheeses are nearly identical - basically the only things that differentiate them is the region where they are made (d'oh!) and the aging time, which in Grana's case is usualy shorter, doesn't go over 24 months (something that actually makes the rind easier to chew 😁).

      ​@@Ash_Wen-liFor salt to lower boiling point to a significant degree (even a single degree) you need an absurd amount, much more than you normally would use. And even if you did use that absurd amount, the heat displaced by room temp salt would mean the processes takes longer to heat up.

    I think I just re-thought how I'm going to do my end of harvest sauce for canning... unfortunately where I live, I can't get the parm anywhere close by so I'll have to omit that part, sadly.

    the reason why they put the salt in the sofrito is because the salt helps to bring out the water in the vegetable and helps it not to burn

    • @mk.gurenzero9434

      You don't need salt in the sofrito, if your sofrito is burning it means you are not cooking it on the right temperature.

    Salt in soffrito makes to vegetables brown faster by releasing moisture and increasing pH levels I dont know if its gonna make it taste better if you cook it with or without salt but that is worth testing its probably taste diffrent since onions for example taste diffrent boiled rather than caramelizied but I dont like vincenzo saying its wrong to add salt everytime I get it salt isnt healthy in large amounts for people with health problems or salt sensitive people or people trying to lose weight but theres a reason why we use it so much we need it regularly and it makes food delicious.
