Open cans of tomato paste are a modern scourge for CHOW Kitchen Editorial Assistant Amy Wisniewski. She's solution-oriented, though: She portions out and freezes the leftovers, then defrosts the tablespoon-size blobs the next time she needs some tomato paste.

TRANSCRIPT
When making a recipe that calls for tomato paste, chances are you're only going to use one or two tablespoons at the most. So then what do you do with the rest of the can? You don't want to stick it in the refrigerator with some plastic wrap on it because that's just asking for trouble. So what I like to do is measure out the remainder by the tablespoon. Put it on a baking sheet. Let that freeze and once that's frozen you take it off the baking sheet. Put it in a resealable bag and then you have tablespoons ready to go for your next recipe.
