GARDEN FRESH MARINARA SAUCE
Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer. Place Ripe Tomatoes in a metal collander or China Cap and lower it into the simmering water. Remove as soon as skins begin to split. When Tomatoes are cool enough to handle, remove skins by gently peeling them off. (They should remove easily, but if they do not, re-emerse into hot water for another minute) Run peeled Tomatoes through a food mill, or if you do not have access to one, quarter the Tomatoes and remove the seeds. Then sqeeze them over a bowl and remove any hard core pieces. In a Large saute pan heat EVOO. Add smashed and chopped Fresh Garlic, Sliced Spring Onions including greens,chopped Red Chili Pepper and fresh Herbs. Stir on a medium heat until Garlic is golden brown and the aroma of herbs is released. Add 1 cup of good Red Wine and de-glaze the pan. Cook the wine and herbs until Wine is reduced by half. Add pureed Tomatoes and stir. Reduce heat to a simmer. Salt and pepper to taste. Simmer stirring every 5 to 10 minutes or so for 30 minutes. Serve over Pasta of choice (Fresh is always great) Add a little of the Pasta cooking water if sauce begins to thicken too much. Grate a little Parmigiana-Regiano for even more Great Italian Taste.
