EASY FREEZER-READY HOMEMADE STEWED TOMATOES



Easy Freezer-Ready Homemade Stewed Tomatoes image

Fresh peeled tomatoes may be used in place of canned, just slightly blanch in boiling water firstly for a couple minutes then peel and chop before using in this recipe, this is great to have handy in the freezer ready to use in any recipe, and much better than the canned stuff. This recipe can easily be doubled or tripled. Great to use in stews, casseroles, sauces or any recipe calling for stewed tomatoes, this is even good added to homemade pasta sauce. This is just a basic recipe, to this I like to add in a couple tablespoons tomato paste and a few drops of Tabasco sauce, just to kick it up a bit, all ingredient amounts may be adjusted to suit taste.

Provided by Kittencalrecipezazz

Categories     Vegetable

Time 35m

Yield 5 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (28 ounce) can whole tomatoes, slightly drained (do not use diced tomatoes for this)
2 tablespoons butter (or to taste)
1 teaspoon salt or 1 teaspoon seasoning salt
3 -5 teaspoons sugar (or to taste)
1 celery, chopped
1 small onion, finely chopped
Tabasco sauce (optional add in if you like spicy) or hot sauce (optional add in if you like spicy)
2 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch (mixed with cold water to create a paste, optional if you want a thicker texture then use)

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan, bring all ingredients to a boil (except the water and cornstarch)breaking up the tomatoes slightly with a fork.
  • Adjust salt and sugar to taste.
  • Simmer on low heat for about 25 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Add in the cornstarch/water mix and simmer for another 15 minutes (if you want a thicker consistency add in more cornstarch mixed with water).
  • Cool and divide into freezer-safe containers.

Tips for Making the Best Stewed Tomatoes:

  • Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes. The better the quality of your tomatoes, the better your stewed tomatoes will be. Look for tomatoes that are deep red in color and have no blemishes.
  • Use a variety of tomatoes. Don't be afraid to mix and match different types of tomatoes, such as Roma, cherry, and heirloom tomatoes. This will give your stewed tomatoes a more complex flavor.
  • Roast your tomatoes before stewing them. Roasting the tomatoes will concentrate their flavor and make them sweeter. To roast the tomatoes, simply toss them with olive oil and salt and pepper, and then roast them in a preheated oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 30-40 minutes, or until they are slightly charred.
  • Use a variety of herbs and spices. Herbs and spices can really elevate the flavor of stewed tomatoes. Some good options include basil, oregano, thyme, rosemary, garlic, onion, and paprika.
  • Simmer your tomatoes for at least 30 minutes. This will give the flavors time to develop and meld together. The longer you simmer the tomatoes, the more flavorful they will be.

Conclusion:

Stewed tomatoes are a delicious and versatile dish that can be used in a variety of recipes. They can be served as a side dish, used as a sauce for pasta or meat, or added to soups and stews. With a few simple tips, you can easily make your own stewed tomatoes at home that are just as good as, if not better than, anything you can buy at the store. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy way to add some flavor to your meals, give stewed tomatoes a try. You won't be disappointed!
