I saw a post for making red sauce on one of my favorite recipe sites The Smitten Kitchen and I had to try it. Of course, I also did it in my own unique way. Which includes not really measuring~ but pouring ingredients into my hand, trying something different, etc. The recipe I tried was Naked Tomato Sauce (kinda a fun name, huh?). It was pretty good but a lot of work. Maybe it would get easier if I made it a few times, but I think I will save it for when I am bored or have time on my hands (insert hysterical laughing! as if those two things would ever happen!) to make it again. But I will share some pictures I took of my sauce making. Also, I am really glad I tried! I can now say that I made homemade sauce at least once. Life is full of experiences and I never want to have to say "I wish I had done_________-" (fill in the blank).... so check that one off the bucket list, baby!
I made homemade sauce once and thought "THis is for the birds!" Maybe someday when my kids have left home and I have a huge garden of tomatoes. Maybe.
ReplyDeleteI've recently decided to make my own. This is not encouraging, lol.
ReplyDeleteI think I'm going to use canned tomato sauce. The whole reason for making it is because no one in my family can handle the chunks found in normal sauce.
