THE BEST MARINARA SAUCE
I developed this recipe with a friend to make the most of a bumper crop of tomatoes. Now we like to make huge batches-we're talking 220-pounds-of- tomatoes huge-and then give jars along with a pound of pasta as gifts around the holidays. Knowing this sauce is made from the heart with the best possible ingredients makes me feel good about giving it to my family and friends. -Shannon Norris, Cudahy, Wisconsin

BIG POT MARINARA SAUCE - EASY PEASY
This is so good I refuse to buy marinara or spaghetti sauce from the jar now. I make this and freeze the leftovers and we get about 5-6 meals from each batch. My husband likes to pour this over baked chicken breasts and tops with provolone cheese. Its very versatile.

Steps:
- 1. I make this during canning season so at this point I have already peeled seeded and chopped my tomatoes and they are cooking on med-low with the 2 bay leaves in large pot for about an hour to thicken them up. (I do leave some seeds in my marinara)In the winter I use 4 quarts of home canned tomatoes.
- 2. Chop up the onions, carrots and celery.
- 3. In a large skillet combine and cook onion, celery, and carrots in the olive oil until tender - about 20 minutes.
- 4. Add garlic and stir. Remove from heat.
- 5. Add celery, carrots and onion mixture to the pot of tomatoes. Cook for 10 minutes. Remove bay leaves.
- 6. I use a Immersion blender to puree the marinara right in the pot. We like ours with little veggies pieces but you could blend until smooth.
- 7. Add your oregano marjoram and basil to the pot and cook to your desired consistency.
- 8. Serve over hot pasta. This makes a big pot. I freeze the leftovers after the sauce has cooled. This recipe usually gets us 5 meals and we have a 4 people family.
FRESH TOMATO SAUCE
Preserve part of the summer season: Gather as many just-picked tomatoes as you can find, cook up a big pot of sauce, and stow containers of it in your freezer. If you like your sauce sweet, or if your tomatoes are too acidic, add a tablespoon or two of sugar once the sauce is finished cooking.

- In a Dutch oven (or other large pot), heat oil over medium-high. Add onion and garlic; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until onion is soft, 4 to 5 minutes. Add tomato paste; cook, stirring, until slightly darkened, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Add tomatoes, and stir to combine. Bring mixture to a boil; reduce heat to medium-low. Cover, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until thick and saucy, about 1 1/2 hours.

Steps:
- Place tomatoes, bay leaves, honey, oregano, 1 tablespoon salt, and black pepper in a large stockpot and cover with water. Stir to combine, cover, and bring to a low boil over medium-high heat. Remove cover and simmer 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove bay leaves. Taste and adjust seasoning.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir onions and garlic in the hot oil until the onions are softened but not browned, about 10 minutes.
- Transfer the cooked tomatoes to a food mill placed over a bowl and puree in batches, separating the tomato pulp and juice from the tomato skins and seeds. Return the tomato pulp and juice to the stockpot, add the cooked onions and garlic, and cook, uncovered, over medium-high heat until sauce thickens and reduces by about half, about 1 to 1-1/2 hours. Stir occasionally to prevent scorching.
- Prepare quart jars, rings, and lids by heating them in boiling water in a canning kettle for at least 5 minutes. When the sauce is ready, remove jars and lids and place on dry towel.
- To each jar, add 1 teaspoon salt and 3 tablespoons bottled lemon juice. Ladle the hot tomato sauce into jars, leaving 1/2-inch of space at the top of each jar. Wipe jar rims with a clean, damp cloth, place lids onto jars, and screw on rings.
- Place filled jars in the canning kettle. Return water to a simmer, adding more water if needed to cover the jars by at least 1/2 inch. Cover kettle and bring water to a boil. Cook at a steady boil to process the jars until fully sealed, about 45 minutes. Turn off heat and let jars rest 5 minutes before removing and cooling on a clean, dry towel placed on kitchen counter or table. Check that the lids have sealed, and store in a cool, dark place for up to 1 year.
