What is the shelf life of opened tomato products?

We recommend removing the respective contents with a clean spoon, resealing the product quickly and storing it in the refrigerator. This way, the tomato paste in the jar can be stored in the fridge for up to a week, the tomato paste tube even longer. Ketchup can be stored open in the refrigerator below 8°C for up to 1 month if removed cleanly.

What is lycopene?

Tomatoes are known for their high content of lycopene, which belongs to the class of carotenoids and gives tomatoes their characteristic red colour. Lycopene is considered a radical scavenger. The availability of lycopene is higher in processed and heated products such as tomato paste than in raw tomatoes, because heating breaks down the plant cell structures and dissolves the lycopene.
