Oven Roasted Tomato Sauce Recipes

OVEN-ROASTED TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Strain liquid from tomatoes and reserve for another use (works great for Bloody Marys or adding to tomato or minestrone soup).
• Divide the tomatoes between 2 sheet trays and spread into an even layer. Add 3 smashed garlic cloves, 2 sprigs oregano, 2 sprigs rosemary and 1 Pecorino rind to each tray. Drizzle half the olive oil over each tray. Sprinkle half the red pepper flakes over each tray and season with salt and pepper. Roast, rotating sheet trays halfway through, until the tomatoes are just beginning to char on the bottom, about 25 minutes.
• Add the tomatoes to a large saucepan and crush with a potato masher until you reach desired consistency. Bring to a simmer and season with salt and pepper, and drizzle with more olive oil.
• Cook the pasta 2 minutes less than indicated on the box instructions. Transfer cooked pasta to sauce in saucepan, toss and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Finish with butter and grated Pecorino.

ROASTED TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Use a sharp paring knife to core the tomatoes. Cut tomatoes in half; transfer to one large (or two smaller) rimmed baking sheet; add onion, carrots, garlic, and thyme.
• Toss tomato mixture with oil; season generously with salt and pepper. Spread in a single layer (turn tomatoes cut side down). Roast until tender, 45 minutes to 1 hour. If vegetables begin to brown too quickly, push them toward the center of the sheet.
• Using tongs or your fingers, peel off tomato skins; discard. Transfer mixture (including juices) to a blender; pulse several times, until chunky. Let cool completely; transfer to an airtight container.
