This process is very similar to the recipe I’ve used for 50+ years. A suggestion: the drained water contains much of the natural sugars and acids that makes tomatoes yummy. Removing it from the sauce permanently diminishes the sauce’s flavor. So after setting aside the pulp I place the juice in a large flat, non-corrosive pan such as a stainless or nonstick frying pan, and rapidly boil it down to the consistency of thin catsup. I add that back into the pulp just before canning. It makes a very noticeable improvement to the sauce’s flavor.
I drain the water and put it on lined cookie sheets and cook at low temperature in the over until the liquid is thicker. Then ?I add it back to the sauce.
I’m going to do that tomorrow! I couldn’t stop myself from drinking the tomato water last time! It was so delicious and hydrating, but I’d rather have amazing sauce.
Ohh I never throw away the skins.. I dehydrate them and then grind them up for a tomato powder .. I use it in chili, soups.. and reconstitute it with water for tomato paste..
Hey there! I use passata almost daily and never made it myself. I would love to use garden fresh tomatoes like you did! This must be heavenly with pasta or even bread. Well done here, loved it!
Excellent video for perfect preserved tomatoes, I use the identical process. I use citric acid instead of lemon juice, (same purpose) and I also add white vinegar to the water in the canner to keep jars crystal clear. Nice job..😊
Just made this from the San Marzano tomatoes and basil I grew from seed this year! It’s delicious. I added half of an onion and a little butter with the basil, a la Marcella Hazan. Delectable. Thanks so much!
Here's a tip from an half Italian man who has also watched Italians make tomato sauce: cook the sauce down, but add the basil later once you do the tomato sauce test on a plate. If you see water separate from the sauce running down the plate, it's not ready. Once it is ready, tear the basils with your fingers and add it to the sauce and leave it in. You can also add carrots, onion and celery into a blender with oil (I use water) and blend until it comes a thick sauce. Add it to a flat pan and cook until it becomes a paste but don't burn it. Once this step is done you add it to the tomato sauce. Basil towards the end after you do the tomato sauce test on the plate. You don't have to. But you also don't want a watery tomato sauce. Add your pepper and salt too (I use only pepper; there is a nice natural sodium in the onions, carrots and celery).
I find it easier to blanch the tomatoes for a minute and peel the skins off before making the sauce. It’s much faster to run through the mill after cooking them down.
I cut my tomatoes...seed them ..dice them and put them in a colander for about 2 hous you wouldn't believe the juice that comes out..the seeds have most of the water...then I put them in my crockpot with 2 carrots..a small onion..celery stalk...and a couple of cloves of garlic garlic...cook for a couple of hours then I ..smash them with my hand blender and then can it...I usually dont put the herbs until the end
Finally a video with a food mill. Mine has 2 different size hole inserts. I would assume use the smaller one. How about cooking the tomatoes down on low in a crock pot?
I’m sure it would work fine to cook them in a slow cooker. I have nit tried. Yes, I would recommend the small holes. I have an old food mill with a built in screen that I use because it seems to work so much better than the newer ones with the removable screens.
Looks great! I add and fish out 4 garlic cloves, 3 stalks celery, 2 onions and 1 carrot and cook 2 hours but that's to make about 20 jars of that size. Basil gets a half hour and also comes out. About the same amount yes. I use cheese cloth for the veggies but not the basil. But yes trust this recipe ✝️
You can use any tomato, but the water content vs pulp will vary so if you have tomatoes with more flesh, you'll get more sauce and less water. Plum tomatoes are the best. If you don't have a mill, you can use a strainer with holes small enough to catch the seeds. It will take a bit more work to mash them with a rubber spatula or spoon, but it would work. Just don't use a really fine strainer or you will not get the sauce to go through. A coarse strainer might work.
So 8 pints which is 4 quarts. Nice. So how long did the whole process take from start to finish? Not the time the video shows but the actual time to do? Also how many pounds of tomatoes did you use or how many tomatoes? Thank you you make it look very easier
Thanks. I didn’t weigh the tomatoes. I had a big bowl full. I would say overall to maybe an hour to get to the sauce stage. A bit of cleaning and the food mill by hand is a bit of work.
I bought a Ball freshTECH HarvestPro Sauce...maker in Amazon. And I love it. It separates the skin, seeds and purées the tomatoes into thick sauce. Leaving the skin very dry
Awesome! That would save a bit of work, defiantly. I've been thinking of getting one of those Italian sauce separators. I may look at the Bal HarvestPro too!
😊 Nice video easily understood and to the point , thank you for sharing your knowledge of making tomato sauce, with other videos I got confused but with your instruction I can now make tomato sauce , that can be used in pastas and casseroles
@@Rust-g7y The fact is that many modern tomatoes are lower in acid than older heirloom varieties. Thus, to safely can them, they need some addition of acid.
That is amazing! I just zero-scaped my property and am looking to planter grow Romas' in a nice sunny location. Tomatoes and a few herbs will be the focus, landscape has sage. Studied food mills for passata and this seems best way. Bought an OXO mill today and look forward to giving it many uses. Thanks for bringing out your old tool to show how good they are. Sunny Tomatoes!
I grew up with those old Foley food mills and they are great. But I bought a Sauce Master and in my opinion it does a much better job. My mother and grandmother worked me like a rented mule during canning season. Just kidding. It was fun working with them. We put up a few hundred quarts for the winter. Thanks for your video.
I went out and bought a food mill to follow this method, and it made perfect sauce! However, i have tried 2 batches since, and the mill now completely liquifies the tomatoes! Any suggestions?!
I’m not sure. Are you saying the skins and seeds are going through it? Maybe you are cooking it too much at first? Are you draining off the water first?
@ThePotThickens No, the skins and seeds are not going through. After running the tomatoes through the mill, I end up with liquid and no pulp whatsoever. I don't think I am cooking them any more than the first time. Do you think this could happen from over cooking?
Take chopped fresh tomatoes, purée them with an immersion blender, cook down to desired thickness, season and you are done. Don’t worry about seeds or skins, they will not be a problem plus they add fiber. Eat fresh or freeze or can as you which. This can also be done with frozen tomatoes.
Make them yourself. It just takes awhile. It took me a few years to get my grandma’s Norwegian Christmas cookies but now mine are as good as hers were. It just takes practice. When I make pasta sauce, I use my old Vittorio tomato strainer. It’s great. We had a fire this year and everything is still at six and sevens, so I may have to do this all by hand this year. I can’t find anything.
Thank you so much. I ove your video out of many. I saw my first batch, and I forgot to add the lemon. What would happen if I didn't put the lemon? I'm new at this, but thank you
The one step you might add. Remove lid from canner. Turn off heat. Give it 6 minutes to cool down before removing jars. Helps prevent the jars from having seal failures from boiling over in jar if to hot
I have a question, do not have a food meal, can I separate skin and seats from the skinny trainer? Please answer me. I start cooking on the small. Fire. I think I need to leave it for the night, but will be hot if some more tomatoes in the garden. Do not finish to the end, but I know you probably put basil in the garlic.??? what about salt and pepper?
You can season however you want. Yes, you can use a strainer to remove skins and seeds. Just make sure the holes are smaller than the seeds. Use a spoon to push the pulp through. It is a bit of work, but worthwhile.
I LOVE tomato and basil ~ so delicious and smells so good! Garlic makes it even better! I barely cook the tomatoes as to not kill off too much of the enzymes.
I skin,seed tomatoes & cut them in small pieces & freeze…When I make a chicken,lettuce salad I thaw a small bag of frozen tomatoes,drain them & put them in my salad..Great taste, color & cheaper than $ 2.30 each as they were not long ago….
You can use this as a simple sauce or flavor it more. Often in Italy they will use this to add to their sauces that start with sautéing aromatics like onion, garlic or meat dishes.
This is just a simple passata sauce that I preserve. When I use them from the jar, the onion and garlic go into olive oil first and then I add the sauce to that.
I think so! Even if you don't grow your own tomatoes, you can find fresh tomatoes from your local farmers market and get some good deals on canning tomatoes.
Thank you for the video the recipe and the tips I like everything except put lemon juice insight the jars I don't like the sauce to be sour🤷♀️ I will try it without lemon juice thanks😊
Are you still processing them after that? 5 minutes is not really long enough to ensure all the interior contents are heated to a proper temperature for safety.
Thank you for teaching this. Simple here and retired from the Infantry and learning to eat something with m ore than one color. You people are worth anything I did and thank you very much
I made tomato sauce from fresh tomatoes and put it in jar and the jar in the fridge , after a mother it got mold on the top and taste not good 😢can you tell me why it happened? The jar led has 2 small hole on it ! Could that be the reason ?
Sometimes I'll add basil. But I generally make my sauce pure tomato when I can it. That was I can use it as a base for many different recipes that might have different herbs added when it is prepared.
You could use a strainer. It would take longer probably. Otherwise you can probably leave the skin and seeds (or remove the skin at least) and blend it smooth.
Just a tip. Let people know they should follow the USDA canning guide or a new Ball canning book for how to properly can. It amazed me how much misinformation there is in your comments. You only need to take the lid off of the canner for 5 minutes before removing the jars. Maybe you’re confusing it with a pressure canner where you have to let the pressure completely go down before you can open it. Also, it’s not recommended that you leave the skins on when canning because that’s where the botulism resides. Especially in homegrown vegetables.
I'm not sure I understand what you mean. I'm removing them from the sauce. Some people dehydrate them and make tomato powder with it. I discarded the skins and seeds.

Hey there! I use passata almost daily and never made it myself. I would love to use garden fresh tomatoes like you did! This must be heavenly with pasta or even bread. Well done here, loved it!
I make this often in small batches so I always have some on hand.
I dehydrate the skin/ seeds, turn it into a powder to use as a spice, I love it!
Great idea. Thanks.
I love my hand crank mill, passed on from my grandmother, it makes the best applesauce texture as well!!!
Oh yes!
My mum did the same way we call it in Italy salsa di pomodoro, the best.
Thanks.
Dehydrate the skins and powder them. Great to add to any tomato dish to give oomph

Great video I have a healthy crop of San Manzano in the garden I'm going to give this a try .
Thanks so much.
just finished your garden video. the tomatoes are looking juicy and im sure are delicious. love tomato-based recipes 🍅
Thanks for watching. I’ve been making this nearly every day. I’ll have plenty for winter!
Homegrown tomatoes truly are the best!
Yes, they are.
The perfect sauce for pizza. I love it 😊
Thank you 😋 I agree. I use this for lots of things.
I find it easier to blanch the tomatoes for a minute and peel the skins off before making the sauce. It’s much faster to run through the mill after cooking them down.
Yes. That works also. But I do like the mill because it also removes the seeds.
That sauce is beautiful. Thank you for the awesome tutorial. I just got a food mill today and it's a workout, lol.
You got this! Thanks for watching.
What no ONION? I would of added a 1/2 onion and fished it out also.
I add onion when I open the jar to use the tomatoes.
I want to thank you for your video. I’ve been wanting to make and can my own tomato sauce since my garden produced so many tomatoes!!! 😊
You are so welcome!
Do you ever grow and use yellow, orange, trifele, or others that aren't red?
I have in the past, but I love the flavor and color of the red varieties.
I been making sauce like that for long time but never used lemon juice
Probably not necessary but it is recommended for safety and I want to make sure to post safe recipes.
I cut my tomatoes...seed them ..dice them and put them in a colander for about 2 hous you wouldn't believe the juice that comes out..the seeds have most of the water...then I put them in my crockpot with 2 carrots..a small onion..celery stalk...and a couple of cloves of garlic garlic...cook for a couple of hours then I ..smash them with my hand blender and then can it...I usually dont put the herbs until the end

Wow, such beautiful tomatoes!
Thank you so much! I loved the recipe💖💖
So nice of you. Thanks for watching.
Great stuff. I'm always a sucker for vine tomatoes. I'll definitely try growing my own next season along with cherry tomatoes
Thanks. I like to dehydrate cherry tomatoes. They are like candy.

A Champion juicer works great for this.
Sure. Use what you have.
If I dont have a food mill, could I substitute it with a fine metal colander and a spoon?
Yes you can. It might take a bit of work, but it will work.
Looks great! I add and fish out 4 garlic cloves, 3 stalks celery, 2 onions and 1 carrot and cook 2 hours but that's to make about 20 jars of that size. Basil gets a half hour and also comes out. About the same amount yes. I use cheese cloth for the veggies but not the basil.
But yes trust this recipe ✝️
Yes. That sounds wonderful. I usually can up a lot of this basic sauce that I flavor in many different ways when I use it for various dishes.

Thank you. I apologize for the poor sound quality at the end. The wind was blowing fiercely and making a lot of background noise.
Excellent. To the point, no bs, very well explained.
Glad you liked it
Just made the sauce but I blended everything including the skin
A blender works!
Do you tighten the lids further after jars have cooled and poped. Thank you for the excellent video!
No need. Once they seal I actually remove the rings. If a seal does eventually fail, you might not know it if you keep the ring on.
I bought a

Tomato sauce made simple thanks brother😁👌👌🌹
My pleasure 😊
How long can it be preserved outside? And how long once i open a can?
Pushing down the center button like you did is very wrong.
Why? If it seals, it seals. There is clearly a vacuum there.
I really like your 'style,' like the music in the background!

Yes, I love basil too. Thanks.
skins on AND draining the tomatoed water juice....damn bro. Not my methods but none my beeskneees lol
I remove the skins and seeds with the food mill. And I save all the water and can it to be used for soups and other recipes.
Something tells me there is a lot of flavour being drained from the tomatoes,I would personally leave the water with the sauce
There’s plenty of flavor in the sauce. I save and use the water.
I skin,seed tomatoes & cut them in small pieces & freeze…When I make a chicken,lettuce salad I thaw a small bag of frozen tomatoes,drain them & put them in my salad..Great taste, color & cheaper than $ 2.30 each as they were not long ago….
Sounds great!
Where can one buy the tool that it shows 7.13 separator of skin and seed? Thanks in advance ?
You can find food mills at your local kitchen store or on Amazon.
The experts don't reccomend canning this way. You're suppose to keep the liquid in there and cook down
Can you explain why that would matter?
I was raised to only cook tomatoes in a water bath canner because of the acid .I see you are using a stainless steel pot .
Sure. It works.
Nice stove!
Thanks!
So is this finished product ready to use as in, just pour over cooked pasta? Or do you still have to cook it more?
You can use this as a simple sauce or flavor it more. Often in Italy they will use this to add to their sauces that start with sautéing aromatics like onion, garlic or meat dishes.
Thanks for this. Just made a few quarts. I have the same vintage enamel canner too!
Glad it was helpful!
Can I use the blender don't have that kind of tools? I just harvest my Tom from my garden
Yes, you certainly can.
You were supposed to sweat the onions and garlic in olive oil before you pour in the tomatoes.
This is just a simple passata sauce that I preserve. When I use them from the jar, the onion and garlic go into olive oil first and then I add the sauce to that.
I really enjoy learning about caning tomato sauce. Is it cheaper than buying it from the store?
I think so! Even if you don't grow your own tomatoes, you can find fresh tomatoes from your local farmers market and get some good deals on canning tomatoes.
How do you make a “Light tomato Sauce?”… not too thick??!🤗🙌🍅🍅
I would not drain the water off if I wanted it lighter.
Instead of composting the skin and seeds, dehydrate them then blend them into tomato powder
Yes. That’s a great tip.
Never ever push you lid down in center. You can and will get a bad jar that way
I always check to make sure I don't have false seals. I store without the rings on.
Thank you for the video the recipe and the tips I like everything except put lemon juice insight the jars I don't like the sauce to be sour🤷♀️ I will try it without lemon juice thanks😊
Thanks. Use a high acid tomato if you leave out the lemon.
can you add other things like ground up garlic chunks or chili peppers?
Yes. No peoblem.
Before filling the jars i boil the jars for 5 minutes and another 5 minutes after they are filled
Are you still processing them after that? 5 minutes is not really long enough to ensure all the interior contents are heated to a proper temperature for safety.

Those tomatoes are looking incredible! 🍅 I didn't get any of mine planted this year unfortunately.
Nothing beats a fresh garden tomato.
Is it still safe to water bath if adding other veggies such as shredded carrots, garlic, herbs?
Yes, as long as the acid content is high enough. I might add a little bit of citric acid or a bit more lemon juice, just to be safe.

I was delighted by the looks of your tomatoes, then I saw the size of those basil leaves. Wow! You`re definitely good at growing plants too.
Thanks. Now that it is the dead of winter, I miss my fresh basil and tomatoes. These canned tomatoes and some frozen pesto help get me through.
Looked good until you added the whole basil plant.
I love basil. You can leave it out.
What if you don’t have a food mill?
You can use a strainer but it would be more work.
