The kids wanted pasta for dinner, but not “Pasta La Dorka” as we call it here when it’s simplified as much as possible. They wanted my homebrewed one. It takes time, but it’s alright. Currently reducing to get all the water from canned tomatoes and shrooms away.
It’s almost at the stage where it’s been reduced enough where I can add spices, herbs, and salt to taste.
I used to make a lot of tomato sauce for the winter when the kids were still at home. Many quarts. These days with just me and Grandma around I freeze my tomatoes, because it’s fast and easy, and use a quick fresh tomato sauce recipe these days.
