We have decided to give you the opportunity to make homemade passata, sauce, or preserves. We have put together a composition of 5 kilograms of tomatoes suitable for sauce preparation, a bunch of fresh basil, and a small bunch of parsley for those who wish. This will make your sauce more aromatic. It is all fresh vegetables coming from the Valle Varaita, under Monviso, which has an ideal microclimate for the production of high-quality fruits and vegetables. Try it to believe it!
Let's do it together!
Preparing the tomatoes
Take the tomatoes, wash them, and then remove any imperfect parts. Do not peel them. Chop them and place them in a steel pot or, if you have one, a terracotta pot.
Cooking the tomatoes
A good tomato sauce should not be cooked too much. The flame should be moderate, not too high. Then let it boil for just a few minutes to help separate the skin. Stir occasionally and always keep a lid on the pot. The more it heats, the more the natural flavors of the tomato are lost.
Sterilizing the jars
Place the empty glass jars in a pot of boiling water for 15 minutes. Separate the jars with cloths so they do not touch during boiling.
Passing the tomatoes
Use a manual or electric food mill. Separate the skins from the pulp.
Filling the jars
After sterilizing the jars in boiling water, let them dry well. Take them and insert two or three fresh basil leaves in each one as desired. Then put the still warm pulp into the jars, leaving one centimeter from the top. Finally, close them while they are still hot.
Sterilizing the sauce.
Place the filled and well-sealed jars upside down in a pot with water, separated by a cloth so they do not touch during boiling. Boil for another 30 minutes.
