I surf the internet every year to look for a recipe that may use ingredients I have not tried. I can sympathize with you as to the mess, but in the end it is all worth it. My husband and I pick tomatoes for $10.00 a bushel in the Toledo/lower Michigan area and we make spaghetti sauce, salsa, pizza sauce, stewed tomatoes, tomato soup chili sauce, and anything else we can think of. He is a huge help doing the picking and in the canning process. Thank you so much for your recipe and humor as you go through the process.

I have already canned 14 quarts of tomatoes but have lots left in the garden and want to make some homemade sause. At least someone tells it how it is. I had tomato juice and seeds everywhere, cut my thumb in the process and my kitchen was a mess. But, it was well worth it. The tomatoes taste great and look beautiful in my pantry. So next weekend it's off to make spaghettii sauce. Because I work full time and have a very busy life, I do it in steps. First day, I will peel the tomatoes and get rid of the seeds. 2nd day I will make the sauce. This is exactly what I was looking for.

I don;t skin them either. I wash and core them, toss them in the Vitamix and add fresh basil, ground garlic, salt, tyme, oregano, rosemary, and blend til smooth. I put all into a pot and cook without lid, simmering for about 1 hour. Cool and put into freezer bags for freezer. Very easy. After I thaw it, I add the olive oil and meat it helps thicken it.

I then let them simmer about 15-20 minutes then run them through the food mill to remove seeds, cores, and skins. i dont skin mine first, too much extra work!! i just cut them into small pieces and throw in a large pot, When theres enough to cover the bottom of the pot i mash them a little so there is some juice and then just keep adding the cut up tomatoes.
