Today was a good day for our homestead kitchen. Not only was it CSA day (in which we got almost $35 worth of organic produce including broccoli, beans, beets, squash, kale, chard, onions, garlic and cucumbers) but we got enough tomatoes to make a batch of sauce. This year I decided that I had no time to meticulously seed and skin my tomatoes. This has been a super busy and hot summer for us so I did what any good modern day homesteader would do, and Googled it. I found Kalyn’s Kitchen She recommends making the tomato purée in your food processor. What a novel and brilliant idea. So this evening I chopped my carrots, onions, and garlic and sweated them in the sauce pan while I pureed my tomatoes; skins, seeds and all. Add some mushrooms, chopped garden herbs, turkey burger or chopped portabellas, and some gluten free pasta and you have a magical and uber-fresh weeknight dinner. So purée on and enjoy the tastes of the season!!

Thanks Jame,
We have been gifted with dozens of tomatoes from our neighbor and my Mom this week. I was just telling Carl that we could try to make a sauce but peeling and seeding is beyond what I’m up for. I’ll check this out. Talk to you soon.
Yeah, I cannot handle the seeding/peeling process either. This made a great rustic sauce with lots of flavor. You can really boost it with lots of great veggies. The main piece of advice I will give you is that unless you can cook it for a couple of hours, you will want to add some tomato paste to thicken or run it through a dive/strainer to get out some of the excess water. All in all though still a much easier way make sauce!! Good luck!!
