Hi Julia.
I made this the other night and found that there was way too much tomato paste. I have a hunch that you used a 6 oz. can not an 8 oz. in the video but called and wrote it as 8 oz.
Is that possible? I think it would have been good but since I doubled the recipe, I used at total of 16 oz. of tomato paste and it was way too much.
Love your videos and recipes otherwise 🙂
