Would this product emulsify soup such as gazpacho &amp; would I need to peel and seed the tomatoes first?

Haven't used it for that but I would think it could. It is sharp and powerful. No problem for tomatoes .

never tried that, if the tomatoes are firm i would say it should work.Soft tomatoes would get destroyed.

I haven't tried soup in mine, but I would definitely allow it to cool off before pouring in. The container seems to be more appropriate for dry goods. I keep flour and sugar in mine. Tomato based soups would likely stain the container. I LOVE these containers.

I've only spread it on bread or crackers. I still find the product to be too salty. I've been adding it to water to make a soup base.

this product is not a juicer, so you will have the hulls still in the sauces you make. You would have to strain the mixture after mixing to remove the hulls.

Probably not unless you use your own grocery or produce bag. The compostible bags suggested for use with this product start to break down as soon as you store your vegie/fruit peels in them.

That's why I bought it. It works great. I left the zucchini skin on and went through the entire piece. You could easily avoid seeds (thinking cucumber for me) with this. I really didn't know if the zucchini would get too mushy to stay in the strips, but it was OK-still in strings with some substance to them after stir-frying. I use zucchini for pasta often.

I think it would make it taste watered down. I would stick with fresh tomatoes or fire roasted canned tomatoes. These would be good for pasta sauces.

I am not expert but I believe the best way is cook the chiken first, not in the sauce. Btw, great mole, little bit spicy for my american husband. (Im mexican)

I adore these pans, but I wouldn't cook something as acidic as spaghetti sauce in them. However, if you decide to, nothing much will happen to the pan in the long run. The acid in the tomatoes will strip the seasoning off the pan, and you'll just have to scrub it out and re-season it. I've made pan sauces in mine, and they have the same effect. I clean it, wipe it down with oil, and put it on a low burner for half an hour or so.

Make sure the tomatoes are thawed before you put them in so the pulp can separate easily from the skin and seeds. Have fun!!! This is so much easier than hand cranking some of the other brands.

I have made black beans in it (Cuban and otherwise) many times. I still soak them in advance, even though Kenji Lopez-Alt says it's not necessary.

Listen, if you want no chemicals at all in your produce then grow your own. You can do this indoors too. I grow my tomatoes and for several years have dehydrated them then powdered them. Use a dry net on the cheap side, alton brown method or by a SQUARE dehydrator. Slice in a processor extra thin then powder in the processor. You want diced tomatoes? Dice n dry. I stopped buying canned for the most part years ago. I also stopped worrying so much about what I eat. My Gramma is nearly 100 yrs old and lives on her own. She eats what she can easily get

Yes,,it separates the seeds and the skin.After the machine separates , I reload the skin and seeds again and get a thicker purée from it...best investment for jarring tomatoes!!!!

I've never peeled tomatoes with any peeler. What I do peel with this peeler (carrots, potatoes, cucumbers) is peeled better than with any other.

I used this pot to blanch tomatoes so I could peal them to make spaghetti sauce. I have not used the pot to can tomatoes or salsa, which is why I bought it but never got around to canning anything. I didn't have any problems blanching the tomatoes. I hope this helped you.

No, it takes most of the skin and seed from tomatoes, that's all I have used it for.
