Ingredients
1 tbsp olive oil18 cloves garlic, chopped roughly1 sweet onion, chopped fine3 lbs plum tomatoes, chopped1/4 tsp sea salt1/4 tsp citric acid or 1 tsp lemon juice
Directions
Preheat the oven to 275F.
In a deep, non-stick pan, heat the oil.
Add the garlic and onions and cook, stirring often, for 10 minutes over medium heat.
Scrape into a food processor with the tomatoes and salt and puree smooth.
Run through a food mill, discarding seeds and skins.
Pour pulp into a baking dish (I used a 9" square).
Place in the oven and bake 3 - 4 hours, or until very thick, dark and pasty. Stir every hour or so to prevent burning.
Stir in the citric acid.
Allow to cool before placing into a plastic or glass container and storing in the fridge or freezer.
This will keep in the fridge about 1 week, frozen up to 6 months. If canning, process in a hot water bath for 45 minutes.
