Italian Plum Tomato Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Wash and score your tomatoes by making a slit across the bottom like an x.
• 2. Bring a large pot of salted water to boiling. Add the tomatoes to the boiling water for about 1-1/2 minutes.
• 3. Using a ladle, remove the tomatoes and place them in a strainer. Let cool.
• 4. The tomatoes will peel very easily.
• 5. Using a cutting board, dice all the tomatoes, keeping the juices.
• 6. In a large skillet, add olive oil and brown the garlic. Add your chopped onion and cook until tender.
• 7. Add your diced tomatoes along with the juice.
• 8. Add salt, pepper, pinch of sugar, crushed red pepper and oregano. Add the bunch of basil leaves. This gives the sauce a nice flavor and color.
• 9. Cook down tomatoes on medium heat, breaking some down. Continue cooking down until sauce thickens, about 45 minutes.
