Part 3/6:
Once the tomatoes and peppers are prepared, the next step is to bring the mixture to a boil. Yi chooses to use firewood for the boiling process, noting that it is faster for large batches compared to gas. After boiling, the mixture needs to have excess water removed. This step is crucial, as the type of tomatoes determines the amount of water released during cooking. Using tools like a cheesecloth or a basket, Yi carefully separates the liquid from the tomato paste, cautioning viewers about the hot mixture and the importance of safety.
