A great use for the summer surplus of fresh tomatoes--a classic homemade marinara.
 

Ingredients

  • 12 ripe tomatoes; peeled, cored and finely chopped
  • 2/3 cup onion, minced
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 1/2 tsp oregano
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 tbsp salt
  • 12 tsp celery salt
  • 1 tsp ground pepper
  • 1/2 tsp chopped sweet red pepper
  • 1 tsp sugar

Method

Lightly saute onion and garlic in olive oil, but do not brown. Add remaining ingredients, and cook over low heat, about 2 hours. Stir frequently to prevent sticking. Cool slightly and press through food mill to remove seeds, or leave as is.

 

Notes: This does not make that much sauce but is perfect for two. I add shrimp and serve over rice.

 

Number of Servings: 2
