    Summer Sauce is a fresh tomato puree made from ripe in season plum tomatoes. I'm looking for a source of tomatoes for large batch canning down the road and this allows us to enjoy fresh tomato sauce without the automatic food mills and giant pots with an army of people help that large scale tomato canning usually requires. We are working towards that. But this is an approachable introduction to fresh tomato puree or tomato passata.

    Also, we use glass marbles to keep the bottom of the pan from burning... metal coins work too, though be sure to WASH them thoroughly before using. In case you're using the glass marbles, make sure you add them in the beginning of the cooking process.

    Also leave a little head space in the top of whatever container you are freezing in. It expands. I leave about an inch in mason jars. I don't use a food mill, I take skins off via a quick plunge in boiling water and then let them cook way down, when the water is gone to what I want I use a potato masher or immersion blender to finish breaking up any big chunks. I liked your video though, its the end of tomato season and everyone is scrambling to learn different ways to preserve the garden tomatoes :) You can also freeze the whole tomatoes in freezer bags and deal with them in the winter when you feel like standing around the stove. I prefer the fresh method but both work :)

    I remember watching this video last year fall, but it was bit too late to try as the farmers markets were already out of tomatoes.
    I remembered it this year though...I just did this with a bunch of plum tomatoes and heirloom cherry tomatoes I got at an NJ farmers market and oh. my. god. the results are amazing. It's so simple, like even without any salt, it's just downright incredible. I only bought enough to yield just over 2 quarts, but I'm gonna go back and get more this weekend. I know some friends that would love this!
    P.s. I don't own a food mill, so instead I took the time to blanche and peel all my plum tomatoes and processed everything with an immersion blender after the cherry tomatoes started bursting and it worked out wonderfully!

    You should try things besides italian cooking. I'm arab and i like italian cooking because my country is kind of in a similar region, so we use a lot of the same ingredients like tomatoes, pine nuts, eggplants, etc. We also make a lot of good rice dishes like maqloubeh (rice with cauliflower and chicken) and lots of stuffed things like stuffed squash (kusa). I can't film things like you because I don't know anything about photography lol, but maybe I'll learn.

    • @ArtemisScribe
      @ArtemisScribe 4 года назад

      Maqloubeh is the greatest dish in the world. There's nothing like the pride that comes with turning that out onto a serving dish and the lovely savoury sweetness of it in the way it's spiced is just perfect. It's a hug on a plate.

    I'm on my third batch of summer sauce... and this time I went BIG! 30LBS of Roma's from a local grower and these tomatoes are STUPID GOOD! The grower said.. "don't worry about the skins... just make sure they're emulsified" . I tried it on a test batch. I can't tell the difference. But... I have an excellent blender which I ran all the sauce through before the final reduction. (Ninja blender... SICK!) I also added a little sugar to be on the safe side but I think just the cherry's would have done the trick nicely....after all.. they have skin too! Let me know your thoughts.

    I'm still a novice, but I grow most of my own tomatoes and primarily use them for sauce. I'm trialing 4 new (to me) paste tomato varieties this year.
    1. Some cherry tomatoes aren't just sweet, but also very acidic. The worst tomato sauce I've made was with nothing but red and yellow cherry tomatoes and it was acidic to the point of being inedible.
    2. Floating tomatoes usually indicate low water content. A juicy beefsteak tomato will sink, while a meaty paste tomato will usually float. The ones you have are floating which is a great sign!

    No salt? Put salt in right at the start of the first process? Anyhow, flip the quarts upside down once they are frozen. Will help prevent freezer burn on them.

    A food mill does a really good job but if you want to do it one scale up use a Weston Roma tomato sauce maker you can always do applesauce and all that other stuff but I know S.C It’s not a canner but you may wanna look into that my friend

    If we do not have a huge freezer, where and how can we store the tomato sauce?
    I've tried to boiled a jar with the sauce in it to apertize it but it didn't come well...
    I have a small kitchen and a small fridge 😅

    Can you do a video on how to make tomato paste? I watched an Italian grandma make sundried tomato paste and while it was awesome it wasn't beginner friendly, and I live in Indiana and not the Italian coast. 😒

    I just tried making my very first batch of tomato sauce from ripe plums and cherry tomatoes. I am blown away with how the cherry toms sweetened the batch. I started with approximately 10 lbs and it's yielding about two quarts. The only problem is that I guess I paid a premium because I didn't buy quantity so my two quarts cost approximately $38 when you factor gas to the farm. I may stick with Cento for $2.50 a can of whole plums or even less when on sale.

    In most cases (all cases) it's best to drain off the tomato water and let your tomatoes drain really well after the first boil. Also, the stuff left inside the food mill is waste. Let it go. Hope the next batch is a success!

    You might try a simmer plate underneath your tall pot of tomatoes. It's what I use to keep from scorching mine.
