Pat's Famous Pasta Sauce
Equipment
- 1 large pot
Ingredients
- 4 qt Tomatoes
- 1 30 oz jar Spaghetti Sauce
- 1 cn 20 oz tomato sauce
- 3 cn Tomato paste
- 4 tb Italian seasoning
- 1/2 ts Ground sage
- 2 ts Garlic powder or salt
- 1 tb Oregano
- 1 ts Parsley
- 2 tb Sugar
- 1/2 c Romano cheese grated
- 1/2 c Parmesan cheese grated
Instructions
- In a very LARGE pot, using a vegetable mill, grind tomatos to remove seeds and hard pulp.
- Pour the tomato sauce and spaghetti sauce in the mill, and process it.If the tomatos you added were watery, you might want to add a second jar/can of spaghetti sauce.
- Clean the jars out with water.
- The point you are trying to do is to retain as much of the essence of the ground whole tomatos as possible.
- Discard the debris.
- Add the tomato paste directly to the tomato mixture.
- Mix well. Salt and pepper to taste.
- Add all spices and the cheeses and mix well. Cover and place on very low heat.
- If you wish to add meatballs to the sauce while it is cooking now is the time to make them. Once made, add them directly to the sauce.
- As it cooks you may want to adjust the spices and the cheeses depending on your tastes.
- We add at least another tablespoon of oregano, 2 table- spoons of parsley, a little more salt, and at least another 1/2 cup each of romano and parmesan cheeses.
- Stir every half hour or so to prevent scortching on the bottom of the pot.
- When the sauce is cooked down to your taste (and the meatballs are done to your liking), remove from heat and let sit for 1/2 hour.
Notes
: It is best to use fresh canned tomatos and when you use the
spaghetti sauce, the thicker the better (we use Prego).
spaghetti sauce, the thicker the better (we use Prego).
