Then use a knife to cut out the stem and peel off the skin, starting at the stem hole. To seed and juice the tomatoes, cut each peeled tomato in half crosswise (horizontally) and gently squeeze to remove the seeds and juices from the center of the tomato. First, cook the onions in the olive oil in a three-quart heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-low heat for 10 minutes, until the onions were tender. Then add the flour, and cook for three minutes. Finally, stir in the chopped tomatoes, sugar, garlic, herbs and spices, placed the lid on the pan, and cook over low heat for 10 minutes. Last but not least, remove the lid and let the sauce simmer for 30 minutes. According to Julia, the sauce is done when "it tastes thoroughly cooked and is thick enough to form a mass in the spoon." This sauce is quite versatile and Julia suggests using it over chicken, beef, eggs, pizzas and of course, pasta. And, if you’ve made the tomato sauce from scratch, you probably ought to serve it over homemade pasta. RECIPE FROM: https://www.tasteofhome.com Uncle Dirty Dave's Archives MMMMM ....
