This garden-fresh tomato sauce is a delicious way to use summer-ripe tomatoes.
Or freeze whole tomatoes and make this sauce later on in the winter.
Just remove the cores and freeze them whole.
Then, turn your frozen tomatoes into a garden-fresh sauce any time of the year.
Remove from the heat, transfer to a blender, add 2 tablespoons tomato paste and blend until smooth.
Transfer to a bowl of ice water for 1 minute.
Peel with a paring knife, starting at the X.
If using frozen tomatoes, run each under warm water and peel or rub the skin off.
Thaw in the refrigerator or defrost in the microwave until mostly thawed.
Chop the tomatoes, reserving any juice.
Heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat.
Add onions and cook, stirring, until beginning to brown, about 4 to 6 minutes.
Add garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute.
Bring to a boil.
Taste and season with additional salt, pepper and/or sugar.
