How To Make homemade marinara sauce

  • Step 1
    In a food processor place Italian tomatoes & 1/2 tomato paste, then add chopped parsley, minced garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth.
  • Step 2
    In a large skillet over medium heat saute the finely chopped onion in olive oil for 3 minutes. Add the blended tomato sauce with remaining sauce and white wine.
  • Step 3
    Simmer for 40 minutes, stirring occasionally. When almost finished get your jars and taps ready.
  • Step 4
    Pour into hot clean jars and seal--use a hot bath for 10 minutes. Take out and turn upside down for 3 minutes and turn upright until cooled--these shoud pop pretty quickly after you turn and they start to cool!

    I add Italian, basil,& thyme seasoning for a rich speghetti sauce and just italian for pizza sauce.
