IS IT SAFE TO FILL WITH TOMATO SAUCE?

Absolutely!!! I love mine, I push them out from the back, if they are really frozen I run the bottom under warm water. Love mine, never use anything else!!!

I haven't try that, I am using for clear ice for the scotch only! and its a great looking large cube.

I use mine to freeze stocks regularly. While the stocks are not as acidic as tomato sauce, I wouldn't hesitate to use them for that purpose.

I would think so, yes. They are made of silicone which is heat resistant to 500 degrees F. Also, they don't absorb flavors in the same way that your silicone rubber spatula/scraper doesn't. That leaves me to wonder why you might be freezing tomato sauce in them but thats another question for another day ;)

I can answer that with some confidence because I did fill it with tomato PASTE. Yes you can and it's a great way to freeze it. I'd let the sauce cool before pouring it in, but that's probably not really necessary since it's made of the same silicon as my oven-safe silicon meatloaf "pan". I know what you're gonna do - freeze the sauce then transfer the cubes to a freezer-safe bag for easy pickings later.

Yes you can strain the tomatoes. We use a Strainer sauce maker and cook the tomatoes quickly then put them through that. It takes out the cores, peels, and seeds. Cooking it on simmer will thicken it or you can add tomato paste to thicken it. It all depends on what you want to use. If you have the tomatoes straining them works great.

I don't think so. The sauce is white and creamy not clear, thin and runny. The sauce is delicious! Hope that helps!!

I have without any problems. Just like with any liquid, don't fill them too full.

I have had spaghetti sauce and steak sauce and no leaks as long as you have the strap on

Honey doesn't go bad but it depends on the material of the container as well plus it also depends on the spoon you are using. I guess It will be best to contain in glass container and use clean and dry spoon. Metal and plastic containers might not be the best

I'm probably too late to help you, but tomatoes can be water bath canned (which is probably why the recommend not using the pressure gauge and having the hot water bath up above the lids). I use a large tamale pot. You don't actually need the pressure canner for tomatoes. Some directions recommend it for a shorter canning time, but results are very good with the straight water bath and a little lemon juice for higher acid.

I wouldn't recommend it unless you want liquid salsa. It is great for tomato juice and a

A small sauce pan with water in it, warm it up on the stove that way. Only way I know that does not kill the nutrients or shatter the bottles.

I am not really sure what you are asking. I successfully made blueberry and peach pie filling and canned it. If you use a thickener you will need to get some CLEAR GEL A. I had to go to Nichols Seed and garden in Albany Oregon to buy some or could have ordered it on the internet . I would suggest contacting your county extension service. I've canned several kinds of juice that I then made into sauces and toppings. As long as the fruit is acid enough it should be safe to can. What types of sauce do you mean?

No, the consistency is much like that of tomato paste. You would need to add some liquid to be able to use in a squeeze bottle.

I should have a can of tomato paste at home. If I do I can test it. Let me know...

I personally would not. The tomatoes are very runny / juicy after being put through the strainer. I use the tomatoes for bloody mary mix and marinara sauce after they are strained. Hope that helps!

No, none at all. Here is the list of ingredients from the can: Organic Tomato Puree (water, tomato paste), Organic Onion Powder, Naturally Derived Citric Acid, Organic Garlic Powder.That's everything, and let me add, the sauce is DELICIOUS!!! You can use it right from the can, or "doctor it up" as I sometimes do, with a bit of meat, olive oil, extra chopped onions and/or garlic, or whatever you like. Try it!

Yes. It shouldn't be a problem to eat because it's an apple sauce consistency.

I don't think it would be a good idea. The sauce would stain the plastic and maybe make it bubble up. I would put them in a microwave safe bowl or a casserole dish and cover with a paper towel or a lid. I would add a little bit of liquid to the bottom of the bowl or casserole dish.
