My chef friend is arguing with me and IMO she is just straight up fucking wrong. Cooking tomatoes to death during the canning process isn't going to do any favors for the texture or flavor. Every canned diced tomato i've had has been gross (and the dice is always too big and ugly)
I think she's 100% confusing a comparison between QUALITY canned tomatoes i.e. real san marzano tomatoes versus shitty greenhouse grown tomatoes but she's insisting that no actually canned tomatoes are just better
I just want to get a consensus but i'm going to continue to disagree with anyone else who is wrong about this
the diced ones are the ones I hate using and this whole argument, which you are all wrong about btw I don't care, is because the sous chef is like "stop using cherry tomatoes use the canned diced ones" and it's like ughhh it's gonna make some of my dishes taste worse and uglierrrrrr
its okay we can all have our lib moment where we say "everyone thinks im wrong about the thing..... no, it must be all of them who are wrong"
