How to Make Easy Tomato Sauce With No Peeling

  1. Core and roughly chop 5 lbs ripe tomatoes. Add them to a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven as you chop.
  2. Add 4 cloves minced garlic, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1 teaspoon dried basil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  3. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 1-2 hours, occasionally gently pressing the tomatoes against the side of the pot with a wooden spoon to release juices.
  4. Stir in 1 tablespoon brown sugar (adjust to taste).
  5. Stir in 2 tablespoons tomato paste to thicken the sauce to your desired consistency.
  6. **Optional Crockpot Method:** Add all ingredients to a slow cooker. Cook on low for 6-8 hours, or until the sauce has thickened to your liking. Cooking time may vary depending on the quantity of tomatoes.
  7. Allow the sauce to cool completely before transferring to airtight containers for freezing. Enjoy the taste of summer all year long!
