FRESH TOMATO SAUCE
With your blast chiller you can... Quickly cool the tomato sauce, immediately after cooking. In this way you can keep it in the refrigerator for up to 7 days, fresh as just made and ready for your every need.
You can prepare a large quantity of tomato sauce, maybe in summer when the tomatoes are tastier, and deep-freeze it with the function of shock freezing, and then store it in the freezer for up to 8-10 months. In this case it is advisable to serve the sauce in convenient molds from silicone muffins so that you can thaw, as needed, only the amount of sauce needed.

BASIL PESTO
Wash the basil and blend it with all the other ingredients by adding the oil in a drizzle until you get a soft sauce. If the oil is previously cooled with Fresco® for about thirty minutes, the pesto will remain bright green.
