Ingredients
- 12 pounds paste tomatoes
- 2 teaspoons salt maybe more
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 cup olive oil plus 2 tablespoons, divided
- 1 head garlic
- 3/4 cup green pepper rough dice
- 1 cup onion rough dice
- 1 jalepeño rough mince
- 1 Tablespoon dried oregano
- 1 Tablespoon dried basil
- 2 Tablespoons sugar
- lemon juice or citric acid, or vinegar
Instructions
- Cut the top off a head of garlic making sure the tip of each clove of garlic has been decapitated. Set the head of garlic on a piece of foil, drizzle the top with a smige of olive oil, and wrap it up tightly.
- Wash, core, and halve the tomatoes. Toss them with 1/2 cup olive oil, 2 teaspoons salt, and the black pepper. Divide the tomatoes between two large, sided baking sheets. Nestle the foil-wrapped head of garlic on one of the trays.
- Roast the tomatoes at 400 degrees for about an hour, rotating the trays as necessary. Some of the tomatoes will blister a bit—this is good.
- While the tomatoes are roasting, sauté the green pepper, onion, and jalapeno in 2 tablespoons olive oil until tender and translucent.
- Dump the roasted tomatoes into a large stockpot.
- Unwrap the garlic and squeeze out all the yummy mush. Add the garlic and sautéed veggies to the roasted tomatoes. Purée the mixture.
- Add the spices and sugar. Simmer the sauce to thicken, if necessary. Taste to correct seasonings.
- Ladle the sauce into pint jars, add acid, and process the jars in a hot water bath for 20 minutes at a gentle rolling boil.
Notes
- Variations:
- Sauté a peeled, diced carrot (or two) with the onions and peppers and when very tender, proceed as normal. The carrot thickens the sauce even more, adds extra nutrients and natural sweetness (you can completely omit the refined sugars), and turns the sauce a bright orange-red.
- Add a couple cups of zucchini when sautéeing the onions.
- Other fun seasonings: marjoram, fennel, smoked salt, thyme, etc.
