Introduction

Simple, quick sauce. No need to buy canned when you can make your own and it's so much better! Then freeze the left over sauce for later use. Simple, quick sauce. No need to buy canned when you can make your own and it's so much better! Then freeze the left over sauce for later use.

Ingredients

    Ingredients:
    Canned Whole Plum Tomatoes, 800 grams or 28 oz - Use a good quality like Strianese (my fave), Pomi, Muir Glen
    Garlic, 6 clove, smashed and lightly minced so they are chunky
    Basil, fresh, small strips 2 tbsp
    Thyme, fresh, 3 tsp
    Oregano, ground, 1 tsp
    Rosemary, dried, 1 tsp
    Sherry, dry, 1 fl. oz
    Olive Oil, 6 tbsp
    Salt, 2 tsp
    Pepper, 2 tsp

Directions

Smash 6 cloves of garlic with the back of a knife.

Over medium heat, cook garlic in 3 Tbsp. of EVOO until golden brown.

Add sherry, tomatoes and generous pinch of salt and pepper.

Cook until thick (about 8 to 10 minutes) and is no longer watery in consistency.

Add 3 more Tbsp. more of EVOO, turn to higher heat.

Crush tomatoes with the back of a wooden spoon. Add herbs.

Cook until the oil turns red. This will tell you the sauce is done!

Cook’s Note: The sauce is very versatile and can be used with any pasta; added to meats, fish, vegetables; or topped on toasted crostini, breads, pizza crusts.
