Ingredients

  • 20 Roma tomatoes, halved and seeded
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 cup finely diced onion
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped oregano leaves
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped thyme leaves
  • 1 cup white wine

Directions

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.

In 2 (13 by 9-inch) pans place tomato halves cut side up. Sprinkle with oil, salt and pepper, onion, garlic, and herbs. Bake tomatoes for 2 hours. Check the tomatoes after 1 hour and turn down the heat if they seem to be cooking too quickly. Then turn the oven to 400 degrees and bake another 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and process tomatoes through a food mill on medium dye setting over a small saucepan. Discard skins. Add white wine, bring to a boil, reduce heat to low and cook for 5 minutes.

    Local market was having a sale on Roma tomatoes. I wanted to try to make pasta sauce from scratch since we bought 6lbs of them. This recipe was super easy and turned out fantastic. The whole family loved it. I used a blender since I didn't have a mill or processor. I will never buy canned sauce again.

    I used about 7 garden tomatoes instead of the roma variety. Also, I added dried chopped basil to the oregano and thyme and it gave it a nice flavor. I used more garlic than what it called for and a touch more salt and fresh ground pepper. No sieve, but using a food processor worked great.
