Frequently Asked Questions About Tomato pepper paste cream sauce

What is Tomato pepper paste cream sauce?
Tomato pepper paste cream sauce combines tomato and pepper paste with cream for a smooth, savoury sauce. It is not tied to one fixed regional recipe; rather, it draws on the use of salça in Turkish cooking, with cream softening the concentrated tomato and pepper flavours. Its tangy, gently sweet notes and velvety texture work well tossed through pasta or spooned over chicken, vegetables or meatballs. It can also be served with bread for dipping. The sauce gets much of its energy from fat and provides relatively little protein, so a modest spoonful can add plenty of flavour. For a lighter finish, use less cream and loosen it with a little cooking water.
