@jcniyomugabo My mother used to dry tomatoes and make powder when i was in boarding school.

@BabaCleopatra Wow! How she did that ?

@jcniyomugabo 👍 Do we have to follow certain protocols/methods for this?

@aamirzeb111 Yes.

@jcniyomugabo many techniques of the past, which are zero-energy waste and zero-food-waste based (such as #fermentation ) will be a key solution to the #agritech challenges. @EITFood

@jcniyomugabo Italians have been doing this for centuries and that looks like Mt Etna in the background. What may be new is the grinding to powder which makes a lot of sense from a vacuum and packaged storage point of view. Grind size could be chosen to still provide a desired texture..👌

@jcniyomugabo Didnt know about this tomato powder. And here in south Africa there's a demand for tomatoes, those who have many should export.

@jcniyomugabo @cbeekeeping check this my brother

@jcniyomugabo Interesting. I would love to learn more from you, do you mind sharing?

@jcniyomugabo The Italians sun dry or solar dry tomatoes. And them to various dishes the intense taste really add extra umami and flavour.

@jcniyomugabo Is the taste preserved?

@jcniyomugabo Key word "add value"

@jcniyomugabo Interesting..

@jcniyomugabo This is what must be done because governments do not help farmers in marketing and manufacturing industries, so innovation must be done, and we have long ago sold dried tomatoes by the pound even before they are crushed into powder.

@jcniyomugabo Sundried tomatoes in olive oil and vinaigrette dressing sell for a lot of money for small amounts. Maybe that is an option

@jcniyomugabo sundried tomatoes in olive oil and seasoning is another option.
