Although historically the definition of what "tomato puree" actually is seems uncertain, the earliest certified sources of this preparation certainly date back to Neapolitan cuisine. The first work that illustrates a recipe in which tomato is suggested as a condiment for "dry pasta" is attributed to Francesco Leonardi who, in his masterpiece in six volumes entitled "L'Apicio Moderno", proposes the "Ragù di Maccaroni": the precursor of "Maccaroni alla Neapolitan".

Ingredients : Fresh tomato puree, salt, citric acid.

Recommended preparations: all the great sauces of the peasant and Italian tradition; Neapolitan and Bolognese stew; sauce boscaïola.
