Tomato powder
We reckon powdered tomato is the best camp cooking ingredient. It’s lightweight, completely natural, and turns into an incredibly rich tomato paste or sauce when you add water to it.
This magical ingredient is made by drying whole tomatoes and grinding them into a powder. It’s so good, you’ll find yourself cooking with it at home, not just on hikes!

Using this ingredient in camping meals

- Tomato paste: 1 part powder to 2 parts water. 1 tbsp of powder mixed with 2 tbsp water makes around 2 tbsp of tomato paste.
- Pizza sauce: 1 part powder to 4 parts water
