As a child my mum used to make it out of Sunshine soup mix - yum, but went off the market. i have just discovered Tui Sauce in the shops that is really tomatoey.

i dont like watties, except on a hotday at the show... . there is a recipe using soup mix, and the rate this wet weather is carrying on the tomatoes in the paddocks will rot, so may have to make it. remember my nana used to make it.

Tuimato all the way here. To me it tastes just like mum's old fashioned tomato sauce.

I buy my favourite tomato sauce from Bulls bacon shop. It's called bulls blood & is $9 a bottle. Pretty expensive but it's really yum.

I loved Watties Homestyle tomato sauce until I tasted Tuimato. I buy two bottles at a time now, its really good stuff.

my mother's homemade tomato sauce comes top of the list for me. Next would be HP. As to supermarket sauces, i find Budget from Newworld and pack and Save to be as good as anything aelse, and usually quite a bit cheaper.

For those in west Auckland, a fruit and Vege shop plus a lunch bar - restaurant attached on the corner of Riverhead Road and SH 16, their tomato sauce is superb, so natural and tomatoey thick.
Trying to think of their name.
Cheers.

Hey Valentino - are you talking about the shop next to the fruit'n'vege shop with a name that begins with B?
And everyone else ... where do you buy "tuimato" sauce? because I'm intrigued enough to buy it!

Since this is "recipes" - has anyone a "favourite recipe" of your tomato sauce - I didn't think the idea was to check in with each other what to "buy" - or was it?
