Crafted Ingredient: Tomato Sauce

The ingredient Tomato Sauce, is what is referred to as a "Crafted Ingredient". You can't find it lying around (at least not at first), you can't pick it or grow it, you have to make (or craft) it. Crafting tomato sauce requires a Mixer, which becomes available after completing part two of the quest chain: Standards of Italian Cuisine.

Crafting tomato sauce requires you to click on the mixer. You'll then select the tomato sauce from your options at the bottom, just as if you were cooking a dish on the grill. The tomato sauce requires five tomatoes, and four wild onions per sauce. After clicking start, the mixer goes to work, and you'll have to wait five minutes before you can collect your sauce.

Down the road there will be another quest allowing you to unlock a second mixer, but for now one is all you need. You may find yourself needing more friends to accomplish the goal, and get your mixer. You can list yourself on our Add Me page to list your name, if you are needing more Chefville friends.

Tomato Sauce is used in quite a few dishes including; Pommes Frites, Mozzarella Sticks, Chicken Parmesan, Moussaka, Chicken Enchilada, Classic Tomato Soup, Creamy Cheese Lasagna, Meatball Sandwich, Calzone, Beef Canneloni, Margherita Pizza, Spaghetti Bolognese, and Veggie Flatbread.

Additionally a Tomato Sauce Rack has been released, allowing you to collect tomato sauce without needing to make it. You can collect it from the rack every 15 minutes.

You can also harvest at your neighbors sauce rack for a chance to collect more tomato sauce.

Romance Pond

As you start unlocking more areas in Chefville you'll eventually come across an area containing the "Romance Pond".

The red ribbon is around the pond because it is initially locked. Get a few friends to help out, and you'll have it open in no time.

The pond is movable, even while it is locked, so if you have some decorating plans, feel free to move that pond out of your way.

Once unlocked you'll be able to fish in the pond. The pond contains Salmon. After fishing, you won't be able to catch any more salmon for 60 minutes.

You can always go and fish in your neighbors pond though, for another chance to get some salmon.

Real Recipe: Veggie Kebabs

Veggie Kebabs Zynga Executive Chef Matthew DuTrumble

INGREDIENTS (serves 10)

1 pounds (450 g) wild mushrooms 1 medium-sized heirloom tomatoes 1 large zucchini 1/2 large Vidalia onion 1 large bell peppers 1 medium-sized squash 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) balsamic vinegar 1/2 cup (170 grams) honey or agave 1/2 small bunch Fresh Basil 10 bamboo skewers

DIRECTIONS

Soak the skewers for 45 minutes in water. This will prevent them from burning when grilled. Cut vegetables into uniform bite sizes pieces and line them up on the skewers. Arrange vegetables to keep like colors separate. Think rainbows! Keep in mind this can be eaten by hand and doesn’t need a knife and fork. To make the veggie glaze, combine the balsamic vinegar and honey (or agave) and simmer for 10 minutes. Let the glaze cool down to room temperature. The glaze will become thicker as it cools down but should still be pourable like honey. While the glaze is still warm, tear up the basil to release its flavor and add it to the glaze. Grill the kebabs on a grill pre-heated to 400-450°F (205 - 230°C). The goal is to get some grilled flavor and color on a couple sides. This should take under a minute on each side Once the kebabs look good, plate them and spoon the veggie glaze over the top of the skewer. The veggie glaze will run down and coat the rest of the kebab naturally. Make sure you get plenty of that great basil on there from the glaze.
