Ingredients
- 1 pound tomatoes ripe
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 rib celery finely diced
- ¼ cup green bell pepper diced
- ¼ cup onion finely diced
- 1 clove garlic minced
- ¼ teaspoon basil dried
- ¼ teaspoon salt or to taste
- ¼ teaspoon granulated sugar
Instructions
- Prepare a large bowl of ice water. Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil. Cut a small 'X' in the bottom of the tomatoes and drop them into the boiling water, let cook 30 seconds. With a slotted spoon, transfer the tomatoes to the ice water to cool.
- Once cool, peel the skins off the tomatoes and discard. Core the tomatoes and cut into chunks.
- In a medium saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the celery, bell pepper, onion, and garlic. Cook for 3 minutes or until the onion is tender. Add the tomatoes, basil, salt, and sugar.
- Cover and reduce the heat to low. Let the tomatoes stew until tender, stirring occasionally, about 35 minutes.
- Taste and season with additional salt if desired.
Notes
- Tomatoes can vary in acidity. Add more or less sugar as needed.
- Leftovers will keep in the refrigerator for 4 days, and in the freezer for 2 months.
