Roasted Tomato Emulsion

Roasted Tomato Emulsion: A mixture with small droplets of one liquid dispersed in another, commonly oil in a water-based purée. Gradual addition and adequate mixing matter; a blended sauce is not automatically a stable emulsion.

Context

Use ripe tomatoes and separate excess watery juice when a thick result is needed. Roasting concentrates sweetness and savoriness; straining skins and seeds gives a smoother finish.

Example

A menu could use this preparation as a freshly mixed sauce beside cooked vegetables. This is an illustrative use, not a standardized recipe.

How THT uses it

At The Hidden Table, this preparation would be adjusted to the guests, the course and the ingredient available, so it contributes a clear purpose and helps make the experience distinctly yours.
