I've been making Spaghetti Sauce- so I thought I would show you how it's done. I called my friend Anita and she gave me her recipe-- I made a couple of adjustments to it & found the PERFECT taste for us!! First get all your produce- I was excited we had everthing I needed in the garden this year except the onions. Here's what you'll need to get started.....
|
Tomatoes, onions, bell peppers, anaheim peppers, garlic, basil, oregano & parsley
|
|
Pick a 5 gallon bucket of tomatoes- wash & core them. I don't peel them, just remove the core and any bad spots that may be on the skin. |
|
then blend them up in your blender, and pour into a lrg. stock pot |
|
next blend up 3 T. fresh oregano, 4 T. fresh basil, 3 anaheim peppers, 3 bell peppers, 5 yellow onions & 3 whole cloves of garlic. Add that mixture to the tomatoes in the stock pot. |
|
then add 1 1/2 C. sugar- 1 C. olive oil, 1/4 C. salt and I added 1 more Tablespoon each of dried basil & dried oregano- stir everything together well. |
|
then cook it down for 3 1/2 hrs. stirring it every now and again so it doesn't burn. |
|
when the sauce has cooked for 3 1/2 hrs. add 4 large or 8 small cans of tomatoes paste and about 1 C. fresh chopped parsley and blend well. Make sure you stir the paste in really good, this will thicken it up a little bit more. |
|
pour the sauce into your jars, wipe the tops with a cloth- |
boil the lids in a small amoount of water and put one lid & one ring on each jar. Process them for 20 minutes. Each batch makes 12 quarts. Oh YUM this makes the best Spaghetti Sauce, I know you will LOVE it.
