• portioner: 4 1/2 cups

Ingredienser

4 pounds very ripe tomatoes, cut into chunks

Onion cut in chunks

1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon salt

Vejledning

1. Fill a blender ¾ of the way full with tomatoes, onion, garlic and puree until smooth. Pour pureed tomatoes into a soup pot and repeat with remaining tomatoes until all tomatoes are pureed

2. Add sugar, garlic powder, onion, oregano, salt, and pepper; stir until well mixed.

3. Bring to boil then reduce heat to low and simmer uncovered 1 hour, stirring occasionally. (Cooking this uncovered will allow the sauce to thicken up.) Stir in basil and serve.

If you are not planning on using all of this right away, why not freeze the rest? This freezes well in gallon-sized freeze bags or air-tight plastic containers for about 6 months. This way the delicious flavors will last!
