  • You could say the tomato plants are doing well... and by well, I mean - I am being overrun completely. What better way to use up so many tomatoes at once? Make Pasta Sauce, or Tomato Gravy, or... you get what I mean.
    I was gifted this recipe from one awesome viewer and decided to give it a go, and let me tell you. It did not disappoint!

    Stephanie, I have to tell you something. I am not old by any means 66. My Mom passed away last July, at the age of 99.
    What you are doing with Alora is anything but amazing, my Mom did the same things with my sister and I.
    Alora will remember all you are doing and will bring her love and peace at special times. It is so nice to see you carrying on the traditions of families from the past. It's so important and not that you need to hear it from me. I applaud you and I truly enjoy watching your videos. Thank you ❤❤❤

You two are amazing parents, with equally amazing kids.

    My grandma was full Italian, who came to America when she was little. She taught me Italian spaghetti sauce from her mother. No where near how your recipe makes it. Absolutely fresh, ripe tomatoes…. It takes two full days to all fully cook. But I know spaghetti is made differently from different regions of Italy.

      @@misstlc7136 , you don’t need to be snarky.. however I said it’s made differently from different regions of Italy… tomatoes are peeled, and cooked first, then mashed and cooked down. Using the meat of the tomato.. I also add a good amount of nice red wine. It’s all very different. And the whole process is 2 days. I’m 70 years old… and the recipe came from my grandma via my great grandmother. Have a wonderful day

    I will for sure try this recipe out if I get enough tomatoes this year! The reason most recipes include sugar or carrots is to cut the acidity quickly and reduce the cooking time! I’ve found that long cooking times make for a much better sauce. Plus, I know if I were to add sugars I would hear my Nonni (Italian grandmother) in my ear telling me NO! That’s not how I taught you! 😂

You could if you make it again or take some left over you have add a few seasonings you mentioned and bell peppers or even mushrooms to it and see if it makes it your own. Nice she shared. Thought you were doing spaghetti and you used another pasta which looked good too. So glad your son tried it and really liked it after all the work you put into it. So proud of you for all that work to use up your garden produce you grew. Your home garden is amazing and I've enjoyed watching it grow. We've had so much rain that I can't even set my poor plants out and here your picking already ha ha. Proud of you Girl.

    Greetings Stephanie 👋👍
    Some years ago I discovered quite by accident, a way to chop garlic & onions . . . without your hands smelling.
    I saw an article about the medicinal properties of garlic.
    So when you mince your garlic cloves, you are supposed to chop & set aside for a period of time. I proceeded on with the chopping my onions.
    When I was mincing the garlic, I kept a glass of very cold water that I dipped the knife & my fingers in to get the garlic sticky off. When done with the garlic, I chopped my onions & continued to dip the knife & my fingers in the cold water.
    When I went to bed & my hand was up by my face . . . there was zero smell of garlic or onions🫢 I was very surprised that I couldn't smell a trace of either stinky vegetable 🤗🥰♥️

    When we make sauce from fresh tomatoes, we boil a large pot of water, put in the whole tomatoes that have a X cut into the bottom and leave in the boiling water for about a minute or two, to loosen the skin. Remove the tomatoes from the boiling water and peel the skins off. The skins come off super easy. Then we squeeze the tomatoes to remove the excess water and the seeds. Place the tomatoes in a pot and cook them down for a few hours. I sauté' garlic in olive oil, add the tomatoes that you just cooked down, add minced fresh or dried basil, salt and pepper. That makes a basic sauce that can be used for many other items that call for tomato sauce.

    Wash a penny and put it in your mouth while chopping onions. I know it sounds really weird but it does work. Also storing your onions in the fridge will help calm the sulfur that's released when peeling or chopping them 😊
