About Passata Density

Passata is made from strained, uncooked tomatoes that have been puréed and sieved to remove seeds and skins. It is smoother and slightly thicker than tomato sauce but thinner than paste. The average density is around 1.06 g/ml, meaning one cup weighs roughly 255 g. Because brands vary in thickness, weight may differ slightly — but this value works reliably for cooking conversions.

Cooking & Usage Tips

• Use passata as a base for pasta sauces, pizza sauce, soups, and braises.
• Add garlic, basil, and olive oil to instantly turn passata into a fresh marinara.
• Simmer to thicken and intensify flavor; mix with diced tomatoes for extra texture.
• Passata freezes very well—store in small containers for quick recipe portions.
