The popularity of sauces in cooking is not questioned. Along with many sauces that have come to us from different world cuisines, tomato sauce remains the most traditional. Many housewives close tomato sauces for the winter. This is understandable. It is tomato sauce that is most widely used in cooking.
To prepare the sauce, you need to select well-ripened tomatoes without traces of spoilage and decay. The peel of tomatoes can be peeled off, or you can cook with it. You can remove the peel by pre-blanching the tomatoes for 1-2 minutes. Can be steamed and rubbed through a fine metal sieve. And a clever technique can come to the rescue - a blender. I myself first grind all the ingredients in a blender, then I boil the sauce. To make the sauce thick, the tomato puree needs to be boiled down to about 1/3 of the original volume with a low boil and the lid removed.
Everyone wants homemade tomato sauce to be especially tasty. So, there are several secrets, knowing which you will always have a jar of your homemade real and delicious sauce in the kitchen.

This year, I decided to conduct a culinary experiment, namely to prepare tomato sauce for the winter. To be honest, the experiment was a success! The homemade sauce turned out to be rich in color and balanced in taste, moderately spicy and very aromatic. Such a 100% natural product, you cannot buy it in a store, and making it is not difficult at all!
Since I prepared such a canning for the first time, I took a small amount of ingredients, but the tomato sauce turned out to be so tasty that I will make it bigger next time!
Ingredients:
We choose ripe tomatoes for the sauce, you can even slightly wrinkled, but not rotten tomatoes. Wash them thoroughly and cut them in half.
Grind with a meat grinder. I have a special nozzle for tomato juice, so there is a minimum amount of waste (cake) left from tomatoes.
Chop the onions, which were previously peeled and cut.
Now combine the tomatoes and onions in a large saucepan. Add aromatic spices and simmer over low heat for 1 hour. Do not forget to stir periodically so that the sauce does not burn.
We carefully interrupt the boiled tomatoes with onions with a blender, while we take out the bay leaf, which gave the sauce the necessary aroma, and the cloves and peppers can also be chopped, so the taste is more piquant. Of course, you can rub them through a sieve, but this is a more laborious process and the more I prefer thick tomato paste over a liquid mass.
Now add salt and sugar to the sauce, mix and continue cooking on minimum heat for another 30 minutes. After that, pour in a teaspoon of vinegar, boil for 1-2 minutes and immediately pour it into sterilized jars.
Cover the jar with a hot lid (boiled in water for 5 minutes) and screw it up. For additional sterilization, turn the jars upside down and cover with a warm "fur coat" until they cool completely.
Such natural tomato sauce, it is advisable to store, as well as all preservation in a cool dark place.
Tomato sauces are loved for their versatility.
They are added to roasts, or pilaf, noodles and fried potatoes. Any side dish with them becomes an almost complete dish.
Often, housewives, making winter preparations, invent them literally "on the fly", there are few vegetables that, in one capacity or another, did not get into tomato dressings.
What can I say, plums and cherry plums, Jerusalem artichoke and even apricots in the form of dried apricot pieces are also used. We offer you several proven recipes for your judgment.
For sauces, ripe vegetables are taken without damage and rot.
The vegetables are thoroughly washed with a stream of cold, preferably running water, and allowed to dry.
Ready sauces are poured only into sterilized dishes, while still boiling.
The rolled containers are turned down with lids and tightly covered with a blanket on top. After 10-14 hours, the blanket is removed, and the conservation is stored.
If the recipe mentions a measuring glass, it means a standard two hundred milliliter faceted glass.
The metal lids are thoroughly washed and sterilized by boiling for five minutes.
