Ready for the oven!
I bought 25+ lbs of tomatoes for $15.00 in Maine, aren't they beautiful!
No peeling! I quartered them, tossed on some garlic cloves, drizzled some
olive oil, and roasted them in the oven at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes!
I was immersed in my job!
I used my immersion blender to make my sauce.
Wow, 10 jars!
Add 1 tablespoon of lemon juice to the bottom of each jar.
Wipe the rims, inside and outside.
Everyone in the pot!
Add the tops after you've softened them in warm water
then secure with the band ~ hand tight.
Process for 45 minutes when the water returns to a boil.
Can't wait to do another 10 jars!
I'm sending a HUGE thank you to Susan at
From Beyond My Kitchen Window for this recipe!
It's a keeper, it's even easier than the one I used last year,
which I thought was great!
Thank you for following my blog, I truly appreciate your friendship.
Now that doesn't sound half bad! I wonder if I could find that many tomatoes for sale.
ReplyDeleteVee, they are out there! We got our in OOB!
DeleteTomorrow is our last (sob) farmers' market for the season. I've reserved ten pounds of Roma tomatoes. Maybe I should have asked for more?
ReplyDeleteBest,
Bonnie
I know, I hate to see the season end! See if you can get more, they make gret gifts!
DeleteMamma mia!
ReplyDeleteNot bad for an Irish Yankee!! LOL!
Deletethat is awesome!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you, it was so easy too!
DeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteLooks wonderful, there is nothing better in the winter opening a jar of home-made heaven when it is cold out! Have a good weekend!
Ivan
I like to call it "summer in a jar!"
DeleteMmmmm... I imagine the lovely scent emanating from your kitchen!
ReplyDeleteHome-made sugo is the best :-)
It was wonderful!
DeleteSuch dedication! I know I should do it but I never seem to get around to it! This recipe sounds so simple I bet the taste is stunning. Roasting the toms is an excellent way to bring out their flavour. Can't wait to receive the one youre sending me!
ReplyDeleteDom, it's so easy! It's also instant gratification, I know you'd like that! LOL!
DeleteThe jars look great. The recipe is simple and I think highlights all the ingredients in the sauce. Didn't the house smell great while the tomatoes were roasting?
ReplyDeleteOh, I could have canned all night! I loved how my home smelled!!! Thank you again for that recipe!
DeleteMary, that is a LOT of tomatoes for $15. Love your immersion pun.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend.
Sam
Sam, that was a HUGE amount, and they were beautiful, nary a blemish! Glad you liked my corny sense of humor too! LOL!!
Deletegreat recipe but do you take the peel off before you start the process?
ReplyDeleteCathy
Hi Cathy, no peeling necessary, isn't that beautiful!
DeleteDid you peel the tomatoes first? They are beautiful and have never roasted prior to canning...bet that really makes the flavor intense.
ReplyDeleteThat's the beauty, no peeling involved!!! Believe me, I've peeled my share of tomatoes!!! One year I peeled 100 lbs! Yes, you read right!
DeleteI think I'm going to visit our farmers' market today!! I would love to can up a batch of easy tomato sauce. Thanks for the tips!
ReplyDeleteGood luck @ the market! I'm happy to help out a fellow blogger friend!
DeleteYum!
ReplyDeleteYou can say that again!
DeleteNicely done! We have access to an organic food co op that has had the most beautiful tomatoes this year. I typically don't make my own sauce :) but your recipe is tempting me!! Your home must have smelled wonderful as this sauce simmered on the stove.
ReplyDeleteHave a nice weekend!
leslie
Go for it, you won't be sorry! I'm working on another batch!
Deleteive been turning down tomatoes saying i just dont have time... your sauce is enought to make me think i do have time! yum! and easy peasy! enjoy your day!
ReplyDeleteEven if you make the sauce one night and can them the next, you won't be sorry, that's what I did!
DeleteYou'll have some 'good eating' this winter! What beautiful jars of sauce! They even LOOK pretty! Happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteHonestly, I enjoy looking at them on my shelves! It's like art work, culinary art work!
DeleteNo peeling? Oh my word what a great recipe! I only wish you had posted this ealier as I've let my chickens indulge themselves with tomato after tomato, hence not a one remains, but there is always next year. Thanks for sharing, have a great weekend, Julie.
ReplyDeleteOh no!! Maybe you can find some inexpensive ones and try it out!!!
DeleteBeautiful! Many delicious meals ahead of you!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by!
Thank you! I'm getting ready for winter! LOL
DeleteI have always wanted to try this. I cook a lot of Italian recipes so it is much easier to have the sauce made ahead of time. I love this. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteMuch love,
Marcia
It's so nice to reach into the pantry and grab "summer in a jar" to make meals in the dead of winter! You'll love it!
DeleteI went back to the market and picked up Romas, came home and did your sauce. Oh my, it is delicious! I've posted about it today and linked back to you and Susan. Thanks to both of you!!
ReplyDeleteBest,
Bonnie
Yay, I'm thrilled that you like it!
DeleteNo peeling....yes! :-)
ReplyDeleteI know huh!!! Don't you love it!!!
DeleteI love being able to preserve our own food and I relly like your using the immersion blender rather than peeling - that is one handy device.
ReplyDeleteIt's just an amazing piece of kitchen equipment!
DeleteYum! Satisfying getting all that done and in the storehouse, right?
ReplyDeleteIt's like kitchen cabinet artwork when I open the pantry doors!
DeleteBeautiful jars all filled with roasted garlicky tomatoes-heaven!! Not only could I almost imagine that wonderful smell as I was reading your post but I could imagine myself dipping a spoon into that tomato goodness...better go and have lie down now in a darkened room...
ReplyDeleteThe house smelled amazing, and I did taste it!
