Expert tip in that video! Canned tomatoes. The lids have dates stamped in and another three-digit number. The date is the expiration date (which is for legal reasons only, chemically a sealed can can live for years and decades). But i already said it earlier, too: canned tomatoes by a good brand are better than fresh tomatoes during the cold season. He said the number, three digits, refers to the day in the year when the tomatoes were canned in. You want that number to be between 190 and 250, (190th-250th day of the year), because that means that summer-harvested best tomatoes from the best warm season got canned. If you then use a good Italian brand with San Marzano tomatoes, then you have made the best choice possible with the best arome and taste.

He also prefers canned tomatoes, like I do. He's my hero - not. Some other things he talked were rubbish.
