Any good tasting tomatoes really, though personally I avoid using sweeter ones like cherries because I hate sweet tomato sauce. We had over 20kg of tomatoes to use from 4 determinate plants outdoors, and any over ripe ones from the greenhouse went in the pot too. Paste tomatoes contain less juice, so they cook down quicker, and are generally a bit more bland raw, so the sauce isn't overpowering in sweetness or acidity.
Something high yielding, plum or heart shaped (fewer seeds, meatier) and on the larger side to make them easier to skin (I didn't bother de-seeding or skinning though). I'll probably be sending some EM Champion seed into the seed circle, we got 15kg from two plants outdoors, maybe you could get 10kg per plant in a greenhouse.
