Ingredients

2 - 3 pounds fresh vine-ripened tomatoes

6+ garlic cloves, minced

5+ tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

1 Lge Sweet onion like Vidalia - chopped

Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper

Optional - Basil, Tyme, Oregano.....

Directions

Preheat oven to 250 degrees F.

Wash tomatoes and cut out the stem core. Slice the tomatoes in half lengthwise. Scoop out and discard the seeds, leaving as much pulp as possible.

Place tomatoes, cut sides up, on baking pan. They can be placed closely together since they shrink a bit during baking.

Spoon olive oil over tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper. Bake 2 hours.

Remove from oven and spread the onions and garlic over the top (along with any other herbs you would like) and put back in the oven for 1 hour.

Remove from oven and using a potato masher, mash the whole thing together to blend. It will be chunky. At this point I pick out some of the larger pieces of skins and toss them. Add salt to taste, serve over your favorite pasta.

Roasted tomatoes will keep in an airtight container, chilled 2 weeks or up to 8 months in the freezer.

Nothing beats tomatoes right out of your own garden!!! This is a great recipe. Thank you for sharing!

I grow the plum tomatoes for sauce. I cut them in half and freeze them. They have almost no seeds or wasted juice. Lots of flesh. You toss them in boiling water or broth and after a few seconds remove and the skins come right off.

I just made this and it is to die for. I'll have plenty more tomatoes to pick soon. I hope I can freeze some of this sauce before it gets eaten. Thanks for sharing.

Ooh, sounds delicious. i've taken to broiling my cherry tomatoes (not out of the garden, unfortunately; i fear i planted too late) sometimes and tossing them with olive oil and a few herbs and mozzarella or parmesan and pasta. it's so good, and simple, and a similar principle. i'll have to try this, too.
