How to Make Homemade Tomato Sauce

Score a small “x” at the bottom of each tomato and blanch them in boiling water for about 30 seconds.

Remove the tomatoes and place them in cold water. Peel off the skin, then remove the seeds and roughly chop the tomatoes.

Cook the Base:

Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.

Add the chopped onions and cook until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.

Stir in the chopped garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

Simmer the Sauce:

Add the chopped tomatoes to the pot.

Stir in the basil, salt, pepper, and a pinch of sugar if desired.

Lower the heat and let the sauce simmer for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Final Touches:

Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning as needed.

For a smoother sauce, use a blender or food processor to puree it to your desired consistency.
