Recipe Introduction


Heston's tomato concentrate sauce enhances the meatiness of any hamburger and will make it even more juicy.



List of Ingredients




3kg very ripe tomatoes
salt, as needed

Recipe



Cut the tomatoes in half and, using a spoon, scoop the pulp and seeds into a bowl. Avoid damaging the central veins of each tomato, so that the sliced tomatoes retain their shape. Reserve some of the tomato halves for garnish.
Press the pulp through a very coarse sieve to remove any seeds and large pieces of the flesh and core.
Pour the liquid into a pan and reduce at a simmer until the liquid takes on a thick, ketchup-like consistency. Stir often with a wooden spoon as the concentrate thickens - lower the heat to avoid burning it.
Season with a little salt to taste. The flavour will be very intense, but it will really enhance the meaty flavours of any hamburger.
