How to Make Uncooked Tomato Sauce

  1. Gently crush 2 cloves of garlic.
  2. Finely chop 1/4 cup fresh basil and 1/4 cup fresh parsley.
  3. Dice 2 pounds ripe tomatoes (or halve 2 pints of grape tomatoes).
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil, the crushed garlic, chopped basil, and parsley.
  5. Add the diced tomatoes to the bowl and gently toss to combine.
  6. Season generously with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Add 1/2 teaspoon of sugar (optional) to balance acidity.
  7. For best flavor, let the sauce sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes (or up to 4 hours) before serving.
  8. Serve immediately over toasted crusty bread as bruschetta, or toss with your favorite pasta.
