Tips:

  • Use ripe tomatoes: The riper the tomatoes, the sweeter and more flavorful your sauce will be.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the tomatoes, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and will make the sauce watery.
  • Season to taste: Once the sauce is cooked, season it to taste with salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices.
  • Let the sauce simmer: Simmer the sauce for at least 30 minutes, or longer if you have time. This will help to develop the flavors and thicken the sauce.
  • Use a food processor or blender: If you want a smooth sauce, you can use a food processor or blender to puree it.
  • Freeze the sauce for later: Diced tomato sauce can be frozen for up to 3 months. To freeze the sauce, let it cool completely, then transfer it to an airtight container and freeze.
