You remind me of my 8th grade Home Economics teacher. I still remember her in detail after over 50 years, her name was Mrs Bremerton. She was so sweet, respectful, and funny but quite prim and proper. You are a good teacher.
Keep up the videos. We don’t have much extra money so your videos help in so many ways: using everything, making foods on my own 4 cheaper vs store bought/processed, the list goes on. Be our home economics teacher to those of us who had none growing up. 💜
Hi Mary i thought i knew everything about baking snd cooking till i watched your programme, im So pleased i did. Unfortunately my health through covt has stopped me from doing all my favourite things in the kitchen for my four children and eight grand children, but im so happy happy happy that i can watch you from now on, keeps me out of trouble. Thank you so much for sharing all your knowledge love from England xxxx ,
I harvested a lot of basil not all at once a sald spinner is great to dry it after washing i packed mine in a quart mason jar vacuum sealed it put it in the freezer then when it was time to harvest another round i took the jar out of the freezer opened it used a spoon handle and crushed it up and then packed more basil leaves in i kept doing this untill the jar was full making sure to vacuum seal the jar lid on every time i opened it .
This is perfect timing I was looking for a marinara sauce recipe to add to my recipe book. Thank you Mrs Mary for sharing this video. I'm itching to get to the farmer's market for tomatoes, cucumbers and anything else I can find. I love homemade food especially for my children and grandchildren 🥰💝🥰😁
Perfect timing! I was just getting ready to look up a marinara sauce recipe as I am getting ready to pick another round of roma tomatoes! Thank you. Mary!
Love this sauce. I made i pintes of it. It’s so fun to smooch the tomatoes with our hands. I did make a small mess but I was more careful after a few mishaps lol. I also did the tomato powder with the peels and well, although it did turn out good but it was time consuming to peels and to dry. I will do the feeling and the sauce but I’ll just keep the peels for soups or broth. A whole case of tomatoes gave me about 4 tbsp of powder. Not sure if I did something wrong or if it’s normal but definitely not attempting it again. I am grateful to have it in my pantry. I’ll try to find a good recipe to use it. I love your channel and extensive detailing. I learn so much from you. Thank you.
Hello Mary and thank you for this video. My question is I would like to pressure can this recipe using the canned tomatoes. Do you have a pressure canning recipe and times?
Mary I always enjoy how well and organized you present your thoughts. Simply I enjoy every video this far. I would love to see you do a bean casserol and bean dip. Vie 💚
Hello Mary, I am a new subscriber from Derry Northern Ireland. I have recently been watching your videos. Blessings to you and your family every day. I recently made your sauerkraut and loved it. ❤️🍀🇮🇪❤️
Hi Eileen! Welcome!! So glad to hear that you are enjoying the videos. I would love to visit Ireland one day. My paternal great grandparents are from there. Love, Mary
Looks so yummy! I add my fresh tomatoes whole to the pot on very low heat. They have so much water that they don’t burn. Then squish them with a spatula or potato masher, when they soften up. do love homemade but if I can skip a step without sacrificing quality I’ll do it. Thank you for leaving the skins! Too nutritious to throw out!!
Thank you, Mary! I got a new dehydrator last Christmas and only just used it to dry herbs I grew this summer. I would love to know more ways to use it! God Bless you! 🙂♥️
Mary, Mary!! I made your tomato sauce recipe with port wine in August. Froze it and made a quick beef vegetable soup. Oh my Gosh so so delicious!!! Thank you for the wonderful recipe which is going to be a staple each summer when I put up tomatoes!!! So good!! I hope you are feeling much better.
I just dried a half-gallon jar of sun-dried Roma tomatoes. I was going to then jar them in olive oil to give as gifts but could I use them for this? I realize will need to soak the tomatoes first. Any thoughts? I’d live to see more on using dehydrated goods in recipes. Thanks. Love you and your channel. You are so sweet and kind and I have to constantly remind myself to “channel my inner Mary!”
Oh Jean! You are so sweet! You have an interesting question if you reconstitute them it may work. I’ve never tried it. I’ll try to start adding more recipes using dehydrated foods. Great idea! Love, Mary
I prefer oregano too! Though usually use fresh, but dried if I don't have fresh on hand, works great too. Love basil though, just not in marinara sauce. Lots of fresh tomatoes are also good for soup, hot or cold.
Looks wonderful, I think a little more garlic would be appropriate 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀 I love garlic! Marinara sauce is so good for alot of stuff, I do have some frozen that I just thaw out. Don't know if you think it's good to freeze but it makes it convenient, I love to make all kinds of soups with it. Do you have any ideas what to do with green tomatoes? I live in Washington state and I have some that aren't getting red, not enough sun and warm weather I guess . As always I love all your recipes. Your sister from another mother.. Charlotte
Thanks for sharing. Daniel loves to dip cheese bread into marinara sauce. Daniel played in some poison ivy so he's got a rash on his hands and legs. Still in the packing and moving things stage. I already got everything I'm keeping. Lee still has to go get the rest. Helping Mom with the household chores. I washed the dishes and now I'm folding their laundry.
Thank you so much for another great video and thank you for another great cooking video to always love a good cooking video always learn something you from all my awesome friend hugs and kisses from grandma Sandy
Hi Mary, wonderful recipe, thank you. I have noticed in many of your videos you mention keep the skins ( garlic, onion, etc) these type of items can't be washed so how do you make them safe to use? Have a great day.
Hi Ann, Great question. I don’t worry about it because they are all things that I’m going to use in making some type of broth, stock, or bone broth where they are going to be heated. But you could certainly try to rinse the exteriors before you started cutting them if you were concerned. As far as pesticides go, when it comes to things that have grown in the ground like onions, carrots, etc. I tried to buy organic when possible. However, I’m not too concerned when it comes to onions because they are members of the clean 15 - meaning that they have the least amount of pesticides are used on them to grow. Love, Mary
Hi Mary, this looks delicious! Can’t wait to try. Do you happen to have a perspective on mixing different kinds of cinnamon? I had this great cinnamon mix when I was in Wisconsin recently and wanted to try it myself as it is super pricey. Please let me know what you think. Thanks!
This was great Mary, thanks. However, I always add garlic at the last because I thought it would burn. Also, an different question, Balsamic vinegar, I had some once they was sweet and dark, as well as thick. The friend didn’t remember what kind she purchased. Any thoughts? Thanks, waving to you from Michigan Oh BTY, thanks for defining what Marinara sauce is. Mary how would I make tomato soup? Another question, can I freeze this?
Hi Sue, First - as to the balsamic vinegar. Yes, there are all different types based on how long they were aged. The longer the age - which should be indicated on bottles of real balsamic vinegar with the use of leaves (one leaf leased aged, 4 leaves longest aged) - will mean that the balsamic vinegar will be thicker and sweeter. What a great idea about tomato soup! I'll add that to my list of videos to make. As to the marinara, yes, you can freeze it. Be sure to check the written recipe over on my website: marysnest.com/how-to-make-marinara-sauce-with-fresh-or-canned-tomatoes/ Love, Mary
I learned a trick from Laura in the Kitchen... she puts the garlic and oil in the cold pan together, and heats it up. It infuses the oil as it slowly heats up... throwing it in heated oil makes for a greater chance of it burning.
Hi sweet friend Mary, with 'Nicholas' coming we're praying for you and your family to be safe & unaffected by it, & also for everyone else in it's path. God Bless🛐✝
Hi Denise! Thanks so much!! As to water bath canning it - you would need to add some citric acid or lemon juice. Not sure how it would change the taste. I could probably be pressured canned but I would check with a Ball Canning cookbook for the correct processing times. Hope you and the family are doing great! Looking forward to chatting with you soon! Love, Mary
I have not home canned this but I think it might be OK to pressure can. But I would check with the online site the national Center for home food preservation to be sure. If you wanted to water bath can it, you might have to add some citric acid or lemon juice. You’ll want to check online or with a ball canning book Before you proceed. Love, Mary
Hi Mary! Why do you use less tomatoes if they're canned than if they're fresh? 12lbs of fresh vs 7lbs of canned....I got a great deal on Muir glen crushed tomatoes and am looking to use them up soon by making and canning some arrabbiata sauce.
Hi Mary! My mother in law can’t eat lectins so I was going to make her some home made sauce when she visits. That means no skin and no seeds. Will removing the seeds change anything about the recipe? Will I will need more tomatoes or maybe more liquid?
Mary, I want to cry😥. In my sons garden, he just didn’t get the tomatoes amounting to what he thought he would. While we are eating all we want fresh ( which I love) , we aren’t getting enough to home bottle things like this wonderful looking marinara sauce. We have enough for a batch or two for speghetti , which my daughter in law made some the other night w/ meatballs that was delicious. However, the weren’t Roma. But it was very good. But to home can some and bottle for use over the coming year, isn’t going to happen this year. Yours looks just absolutely wonderful. My brother says because if the drought in California, a lot of farmers have had to turn their water off. He said tomatoes will go sky high. But I don’t know that for sure. That’s his opinion. But I love you and your videos Mary. My mouth always water for the things you cook. Thanks for everything! See you next time, and please hurry back!
A tip is to freeze the tomato whole but cut off the stem. When you get enough to process, pull them out and the skins will come right off (you can even take the skins off before freezing if you want) and process them like you would if they were fresh. 💕
Hi Anita, I think it can probably go 6 months and be fine. Just make sure that you seal it really well in a freezer proof bag to prevent freezer burn. Love, Mary
Mary I made your sauce and have a freezer full. It is delicious, but, I did double the garlic (2 bulbs) and it's a little bit to spicy for us. Is there anything you can recommend to tamper the garlic that I could add to the sauce when I serve it again, like butter, cream, etc. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Anita
This looks delicious, but there is no way I could ever use that much. I love marinara, but my family is only lukewarm about it. Any thoughts on how to cut it down the amount with canned tomatoes? Thank you
Can anyone suggest a book about growing food that is complete. I'm looking for a book or 2 books that provide info regarding companion plants, soil amendments, how to take care of the plants/trees, harvesting and etc.
Great question. When you make an all day simmered "Sunday" spaghetti sauce, the acidity increases so chefs will often add a pinch of sugar. With a marinara, you are only simmering the sauce for about an hour - covered - so there is very little evaporation and very little concentration of the acidity so you really shouldn't need any sugar but if you find your sauce needs it, by all means add it. Love, Mary
What if I have fresh picked oregano, basil and romas? How much in recipe? I will be water bath canning. So, 2 Tbsp. Lemon juice to each quart. 1Tbsp. Per pint. I do not use citric acid.
Be sure to open the description under the video where there is a link to the recipe and lots of other great info. I'll also add the recipe link here: marysnest.com/how-to-make-marinara-sauce-with-fresh-or-canned-tomatoes/ Love, Mary
Hi Linda, I have not canned this. You may be able to pressure can it - or if you want to water bath can it, you might have to add lemon juice or citric acid. I would check and see what a Ball canning book says. Love, Mary
Hi Carrie, You could probably pressure can this but you would wanna check with a ball canning back or some other resource on the proper time, etc. If you wanted to water bath canner she would probably have to add some citric acid or lemon juice to the sauce. Love, Mary
Great question. It's not traditionally added to marinara since this is more of a loose sauce and cooked quickly so it is not so intense as a "Sunday" sauce that is simmered all day and can benefit from a bit of sweetness to offset the concentrated acidity. But if you find tomatoes simply too acidic, by all means add some sugar to soften the taste. Love, Mary
@@MarysNest So *that* is why some sauces are more acidic! I thought it must be different varieties of tomatoes. We grew a ton of Roma tomatoes this year, which I expected them to come in all at once. Instead they trickled in over 6 weeks or so. I opted to freeze them so they could be processed in one day and then canned. So many other recipes call for the long simmer time to reduce the water content. It surprised me to see you actually add water, though I understand you wanted a thinner sauce. I've seen others core their tomatoes and score the bottom. Freezing then causes the peels to come right off once thawed. Or at least that is what is supposed to happen! The other benefit to freezing is that the tomato juice should be easier to drain off. I love to drink tomato juice so this seems like a 2 for 1 process. Fingers crossed! 🤞
Oregano will make this taste like a pizza sauce. Fresh basil is available in supermarkets 12 months a year. Being too watery and having no basil in it makes this a no-go. Thanks anyway.
Hi Stefanie, great question. Yes, marinara is a simple - quick to make - tomato sauce. It is called marinara because this is the type of tomato sauce that Italian sailors ("mariners") liked. It was easy to make on a ship and did not need to be simmered all day so the sailors could be fed quickly. Love, Mary
Oh Gary, I am so sorry to hear this. I try to make things very accessible for home cooks so they do not need to buy anything special. I like to help them to use what they already have on hand. Love, Mary
Hi JT, Thanks for your concern. I am not oblivious to my weight. I am in my mid-60s and have been on a weight loss journey having lost 37 pounds so far. It's not easy when you get older and especially difficult for post-menopausal women. However, it brings me joy to share my nutrient rich foods journey with others. So thank you for your patience with me. Love, Mary

Keep your oil/tomato jars in the fridge. Botulism grows in airless environments at room temperature.

Hi sweet friend Mary, with 'Nicholas' coming we're praying for you and your family to be safe & unaffected by it, & also for everyone else in it's path. God Bless🛐✝
Oh my goodness…you did it again. That marinara sauce is a must make. Now can we can it in our water bath canner? If so, how long to process?
Hi Denise! Thanks so much!! As to water bath canning it - you would need to add some citric acid or lemon juice. Not sure how it would change the taste. I could probably be pressured canned but I would check with a Ball Canning cookbook for the correct processing times. Hope you and the family are doing great! Looking forward to chatting with you soon! Love, Mary
NCHFP also has safe canning recipes online if Ball doesn't have what you need.
Hi Mary, love your channel! Do you have a video on making tomato paste? If not, would you please consider doing one? Thanks a bunch!
Can you can it? It looks so good.
I have not home canned this but I think it might be OK to pressure can. But I would check with the online site the national Center for home food preservation to be sure. If you wanted to water bath can it, you might have to add some citric acid or lemon juice. You’ll want to check online or with a ball canning book Before you proceed. Love, Mary
Thanks :-)
I'd like to can this, after it simmers an hour. How long should I boil jars in the canner?
Hi Mary! Why do you use less tomatoes if they're canned than if they're fresh? 12lbs of fresh vs 7lbs of canned....I got a great deal on Muir glen crushed tomatoes and am looking to use them up soon by making and canning some arrabbiata sauce.
Hi Mary! My mother in law can’t eat lectins so I was going to make her some home made sauce when she visits. That means no skin and no seeds. Will removing the seeds change anything about the recipe? Will I will need more tomatoes or maybe more liquid?
Hi Stephanie, I think you should be OK. This type of thing is not really an “exact” recipe. Love, Mary❤️🤗❤️
Love your channel you know though olive oil goes rancid if it’s not in a dark or green bottle
Mary, I want to cry😥. In my sons garden, he just didn’t get the tomatoes amounting to what he thought he would. While we are eating all we want fresh ( which I love) , we aren’t getting enough to home bottle things like this wonderful looking marinara sauce. We have enough for a batch or two for speghetti , which my daughter in law made some the other night w/ meatballs that was delicious. However, the weren’t Roma. But it was very good. But to home can some and bottle for use over the coming year, isn’t going to happen this year. Yours looks just absolutely wonderful. My brother says because if the drought in California, a lot of farmers have had to turn their water off. He said tomatoes will go sky high. But I don’t know that for sure. That’s his opinion. But I love you and your videos Mary. My mouth always water for the things you cook. Thanks for everything! See you next time, and please hurry back!
A tip is to freeze the tomato whole but cut off the stem. When you get enough to process, pull them out and the skins will come right off (you can even take the skins off before freezing if you want) and process them like you would if they were fresh. 💕
Hi Andrea, Great tip!!
I understand completely. We get a lot of droughts here in Texas but this summer was very unusual. Cooler and rainier than normal. Love, Mary
Thank u very much
Mary I want to double the recipe, if it's in the freezer for more than 3 months is it unsafe or is the quality noticeably changed?
Hi Anita, I think it can probably go 6 months and be fine. Just make sure that you seal it really well in a freezer proof bag to prevent freezer burn. Love, Mary
@@MarysNest Thank you Mary, I plan to put it in freezer mason jars. Thanks again.
Mary I made your sauce and have a freezer full. It is delicious, but, I did double the garlic (2 bulbs) and it's a little bit to spicy for us. Is there anything you can recommend to tamper the garlic that I could add to the sauce when I serve it again, like butter, cream, etc. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Anita
Mary, my 11yo grandson has declared canning as, "the cost thing ever". I've pictures to stare Mary!
I love you. You I bet never get sick either. Your so cheery!! I just love you.
Hi Eileen! Thank you so much for the kind words! Love, Mary
This looks delicious, but there is no way I could ever use that much. I love marinara, but my family is only lukewarm about it. Any thoughts on how to cut it down the amount with canned tomatoes? Thank you
Can you do a video for canning tomatoes im new at this
Can anyone suggest a book about growing food that is complete. I'm looking for a book or 2 books that provide info regarding companion plants, soil amendments, how to take care of the plants/trees, harvesting and etc.
Some chef add sugar to counter act the acidity of tomatoes. Will it make the sauce taste better? Thanks.
Great question. When you make an all day simmered "Sunday" spaghetti sauce, the acidity increases so chefs will often add a pinch of sugar. With a marinara, you are only simmering the sauce for about an hour - covered - so there is very little evaporation and very little concentration of the acidity so you really shouldn't need any sugar but if you find your sauce needs it, by all means add it. Love, Mary
Mary, are your Bay leaves fresh?? My neighbor has a Bay plant and I always dry them before using them, maybe I don't need to do that????
Could you do a video of garden vegitable spaghetti sauce please
Can I water bath can these or do I pressure can these Also do you have to only pressure can broths or can I water bath can broth
I want to make sauce or marinara but I only have slicing tomatoes. What can I do with those?
What if I have fresh picked oregano, basil and romas? How much in recipe? I will be water bath canning. So, 2 Tbsp. Lemon juice to each quart. 1Tbsp. Per pint. I do not use citric acid.
Be sure to open the description under the video where there is a link to the recipe and lots of other great info. I'll also add the recipe link here: marysnest.com/how-to-make-marinara-sauce-with-fresh-or-canned-tomatoes/ Love, Mary
Is lemon juice required in this sauce
Can I water can this and or freeze it once it has cooled?
I prefer oregano, too!
Hi Joseph, yes indeed!! It’s just such a better flavor for when it comes to sauce. Love, Mary
Could you use wine instead of the water?
Hi Cheri, That's an interesting idea. If you think the sharp alcohol flavor would cook off in an hour, I think it would be OK. Love, Mary
@@MarysNest yes, the alcohol cooks off after a few minutes, I believe.
Love your channel. Very wholesome.
Thank you and God Bless!
Can this be canned?
Can I can this marinara sauce
Can you can this recipe?
Can you can the marinara sauce as is?
Hi Linda, I have not canned this. You may be able to pressure can it - or if you want to water bath can it, you might have to add lemon juice or citric acid. I would check and see what a Ball canning book says. Love, Mary
My Sauce last time was pink! I used the blender. 🤔
That’s because air was incorporated into it. If you cook it for awhile, it should turn back to red. Love, Mary❤️🤗❤️
@@MarysNest Thanks for the reply. I’m honored! 😘 We love your personality and YT Channel from Denver, CO USA 🇺🇸.
Can you can this? Sorry if the question has already been asked.
Hi Carrie, You could probably pressure can this but you would wanna check with a ball canning back or some other resource on the proper time, etc. If you wanted to water bath canner she would probably have to add some citric acid or lemon juice to the sauce. Love, Mary
💜
Why not use a garlic press???
No pinch of sugar?
Great question. It's not traditionally added to marinara since this is more of a loose sauce and cooked quickly so it is not so intense as a "Sunday" sauce that is simmered all day and can benefit from a bit of sweetness to offset the concentrated acidity. But if you find tomatoes simply too acidic, by all means add some sugar to soften the taste. Love, Mary
@@MarysNest So *that* is why some sauces are more acidic! I thought it must be different varieties of tomatoes. We grew a ton of Roma tomatoes this year, which I expected them to come in all at once. Instead they trickled in over 6 weeks or so. I opted to freeze them so they could be processed in one day and then canned. So many other recipes call for the long simmer time to reduce the water content. It surprised me to see you actually add water, though I understand you wanted a thinner sauce. I've seen others core their tomatoes and score the bottom. Freezing then causes the peels to come right off once thawed. Or at least that is what is supposed to happen! The other benefit to freezing is that the tomato juice should be easier to drain off. I love to drink tomato juice so this seems like a 2 for 1 process. Fingers crossed! 🤞
Yummy! Not much more to be said
Mary’s Nest - please correct your online recipe - it says 11 tsps of red pepper flakes rather than 1 tsp.
Looks delicious!
Oh dear! Thank you!! Love, Mary
Oregano will make this taste like a pizza sauce. Fresh basil is available in supermarkets 12 months a year. Being too watery and having no basil in it makes this a no-go. Thanks anyway.
Those romas are like bowling balls!
WHY do they call it Marinara ? in germany and other countries is this A SIMPLE but delicious a tomato sauce
Hi Stefanie, great question. Yes, marinara is a simple - quick to make - tomato sauce. It is called marinara because this is the type of tomato sauce that Italian sailors ("mariners") liked. It was easy to make on a ship and did not need to be simmered all day so the sailors could be fed quickly. Love, Mary
Why do you give so much choices!
I could not follow anything you explain.
Oh Gary, I am so sorry to hear this. I try to make things very accessible for home cooks so they do not need to buy anything special. I like to help them to use what they already have on hand. Love, Mary
oregano is CRIMINAL in sauce . awful
It’s sorta odd Mary is infatuated with nutrient rich foods but is oblivious to being obese
Hi JT, Thanks for your concern. I am not oblivious to my weight. I am in my mid-60s and have been on a weight loss journey having lost 37 pounds so far. It's not easy when you get older and especially difficult for post-menopausal women. However, it brings me joy to share my nutrient rich foods journey with others. So thank you for your patience with me. Love, Mary
