Discovered These in My Spaghetti: What Could They Be?

There’s nothing quite like a comforting plate of spaghetti, especially when it’s topped with a delicious sauce that perfectly complements the pasta. But every now and then, you might discover an unexpected ingredient floating around in your sauce, leaving you wondering, “What exactly is that?” If you’ve recently opened a can of spaghetti sauce and found something unfamiliar, you’re not alone. Let’s dive into some common culprits that could have found their way into your jar and what they might be.

1. Tomato Seeds

• What They Are: Tomato seeds are a common byproduct in canned tomato products, especially when the tomatoes aren’t thoroughly processed or strained. If you find small, round, slightly crunchy bits in your sauce, it’s likely the seeds from the tomatoes themselves.
• What to Do About Them: Tomato seeds are completely harmless, though they can sometimes give a slightly different texture. If you prefer a smoother sauce, you can strain the sauce next time to remove any leftover seeds or skins before cooking.

2. Tomato Skins

• What They Are: If you find thin, papery pieces in your sauce, chances are they’re bits of tomato skin. This can happen if the tomatoes weren’t fully peeled during the canning process. These skins are not harmful but can be a bit tougher and chewier than the sauce itself.
• What to Do About Them: You can remove any large pieces of tomato skin by straining the sauce, or you could simply embrace the rustic, homemade feel of the sauce with the skins included.
