My garden hasn’t done extremely well this year and my tomatoes are not producing a huge crop. However I picked enough the other day to make some Roasted Tomato Sauce, which we use on our homemade pizza!
I like this recipe as you only need 4 pounds of tomatoes and they can be any type. Whenever I have a small amount of tomatoes that need to be used up I make this sauce.
Roasted Tomato Sauce
4 pounds of tomatoes, any type
1 onion, coarsely chopped
¼ cup of fresh herbs, chopped (your choice)
3 large garlic cloves, chopped
1/8 cup olive oil
Preheat your oven to 450 degrees. Remove the core from the tomatoes and chop the tomatoes, onions and herbs. Mix all the ingredients in a roasting pan. Roast for 70 minutes without opening the oven door.
Remove from the oven.
Run the ingredients through a Foley mill or other strainer, to get a nice thick sauce.
Divide into small containers and freeze.
I do not can this sauce because of the oil. Each container is perfect for two pizzas!
