Make homemade tomato sauce with me! The recipe is here

Ingredients

  • 24 patio tomatoes or 6 medium sized fresh beefsteak tomatoes
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 large yellow onion
  • 4 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup of good quality dry red wine (optional)
  • 1/2 cup of beef stock
  • 2 tablespoons of fresh basil
  • 1 tablespoon of fresh rosemary
  • 1 tablespoon of fresh oregano
  • 1 teaspoon of fresh thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon of kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon of cracked black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons of tomato paste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
  2. Cut the tomatoes into half and place cut side down on a baking sheet lined with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
  3. Roast  for 10-15 minutes. Remove and allow to cool slightly and use tongs to  peel the outside skins. (Mine came right off with a pair of tongs quite  easily.)
  4. Crush the tomatoes well. (I use my hands but you can use a potato masher or whatever you like.)
  5. While  the tomatoes are roasting, heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium  heat. Cook the onions until translucent - about 5 minutes. Add the diced  garlic and cook another minute.
  6. Chop all  the herbs together. Pour the wine and stock into the onion mixture,  still well and add the spices. Cook over medium heat until the liquid  has cooked down to about half.
  7. Add the roasted tomatoes, making sure that any really big chunks are chopped up.
  8. Add the tomato paste and stir to blend well.
  9. Simmer over a low heat for about 2 hours. Serve with pasta or use in any dish that asks for tomato sauce.
