This might be the most expensive way to make tomato sauce. 🍅
This is Alain Ducasse’s fondue de tomates — a French technique that takes $15 worth of tomatoes and reduces them into a small amount of incredibly intense tomato sauce.
The tomatoes are blanched, peeled, seeded, seasoned with garlic and thyme, then slowly cooked until every drop of water has evaporated.
The result? Pure, concentrated tomato flavour.
Would you spend $15 on tomatoes to make THIS much sauce? 👀

$15 worth of tomatoes… reduced to THIS. 🍅😂
Would you try this on pasta, or is that way too much effort and money for tomato sauce? 👀
Merci pour la recette ❤❤❤
Can you have 17? 😮
How can you have a bri'ish and french accent at the same time
Great recipes, I would serve it alongside thinly sliced fried aubergines maybe adding a bit of fresh Basel.
yes the moustache!!
Sorry but in Italy or Spain it will be only 5$ worth of tomatoes, even here in France, at the moment you can buy a 5 kgs crate of super nice tomatoes for 15 €.
Cartouche!!
