Ingredients
50 lbs of Roma tomatoes
12 glass quarts jars washed and sterilized
Salt
Fresh basil
Instructions
Rinse tomatoes twice and remove any blemishes on the skin.
Place in a large pot and bring to a boil. Remove tomatoes and drain until slightly cooled.
Strain through electric strainer and watch this beautiful thick passata being made. Pass the skins one more time through strainer.
Bring passata to a boil and salt. Taste a few times until it’s the desired saltiness. This is an important passage usually reserved for the elders in the family. I was given the honor to taste the sauce. 💕
Bring passata (sauce) to a boil stirring constantly not to let it stick to the bottom. Line up your glass jars. Add basil leaf and fill immediately and seal immediately keeping passata hot. Seal and flip jar upside down and place in its carton to cool completely. You’re now ready to enjoy sauce for the winter. God bless and let’s keep the traditions going. 🇮🇹♥️🇮🇹♥️
