Exactly what I wanted to know. I lover ATK.
Jack is great and I love canned tomatoes. Jack uses the word "literally " too much.
I buy the Save-A-Lot store brand…Pickwell Farm's best tasting canned tomato I've ever tasted… I used to buy expensive brands but never again…
Very informative.
I love Hunt's petite diced! However, they also come in a "no salt added" variety which I find tastes much fresher and brighter than the regular. Delish!
These are literally the worst brands
For the past 2 years I've tried every single canned tomato product and made notes about every single one from pure garbage to the most expensive imports
Hunts, SM, and muir glen are the absolute fking worst, maybe 2 points above dollar store back-warehouse trash but these are so truly awful I wouldn't use them in any recipe
ATK is insane to call these the "best", they're not even passable
3:02 – The Cento Tomato Paste has a 30-45 day life span, per what's written on the tube. Or, is that just a suggestion?
Currently standing in the grocery store, looking at the side of a can: The Muir Glen whole peeled tomatoes (organic) has calcium chloride as an ingredient (appears to contradict what he’s saying).
Perhaps the whole tomatoes have “less” calcium chloride than diced?
I always pick up a can or two of whole peeled tomatoes because i never want to run out. they're just amazing, great in fresh dishes like salsa love em
Drain the liquid into a bowl and put your hand in the can and crush with clean hands.
👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
Great presentation!
Who would've thunk canned tomatoes had so many uses!👌🏿
Jack is the best!👌🏿
I 💯trust his opinions.
For my money I use crushed tomatoes, most of my sauces and soups that use tomatoes crushed is perfect
I really like the America’s Test Kitchen crew. They all seem like really nice people. Plus I learn heaps
I'm absolutely loving this series of videoes by Jack … its super helpful for the average home cook to learn … Thank you!
Not relevant to this video but could you please use Trader Joe’s products in your videos? Trader Joe’s is in like 46 states now!
I can't believe you have Muir Glen as a top choice. Cento is far better. And Hunts? You must pick these based on advertising support. Even Sun Gold is better than Hunts. I now am truly starting to doubt your tasting picks.
Now I know–well done! Thanks.
Goya products are garbage!
Thanks Jack!
Cento San Marzano whole peeled or Sclafani crushed only
In the promo video there is a can of Goya, however in the video there is not a can of Goya…. Don’t support Goya period…..
I miss Hunt's tomato juice in a can. Now to get it, I have to buy several cans of Hunt's whole tomatoes, and strain off the delicious tomato juice. To recreate the same flavor of several old family recipes, I have to use Hunt's! I grew up with Hunt's; I still love Hunt's.
why don't they do this type of thing anymore on this show? where are the taste tests? where are the kitchen gadget stuff? now, all I see is like 2 recipeis then a woman comes on and tells us some boring history of stuffing. I mean she's a nice lady, but I'd rather have it the way they used to do it with both the sort of blind taste tests and the gadget reviews in the same show.
Thx! Good job!
Woooo, hold up whole tomatoes are whole tomatoes? 😱😱🤯🤯
Gonna look for the tube!
Thank you for the tips! Will definitely look for the tubed tomato paste. 🍅
You don't need to use scissors on whole tomatoes, just squeeze them in your hand and they'll disintegrate.
love you thank you for the nice soothing content
Why is it that Jack just gives me a creepy feeling.
yum, got a lot out of this video
Thank you
Seriously, after watching Jack Bishop in "the tasting lab", I feel like I've attended a high end culinary class. Obviously, he's done the research well in advance of presenting it on ATK, and for the home cook, it's highly valued info.
I just wish I could find whole tomatoes in smaller cans. I don't need 28 ounces now that my kids are gone. I end up defaulting to crushed because I'm not fond of the firming in the diced. I didn't realize I was giving up fresh taste. Perhaps I'll try freezing half of the whole tomatoes for use later.
Boycott Goya
👍👍😊
