This was something that we paired with Gnocchi. But it is good for most items. It simple and you taste the fresh tomatoes in it.
2oz of Clarified Butter
8oz onions, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
48oz Tomato Concasse ( tomatoes that have no skin or seeds) about 10-14 Roma tomatoes
4 oz tomato paste
Salt and Pepper to taste
1 tablespoon Basil
1 tablespoon Parsley
( I added) 1 I teaspoon fresh thyme
and 2 teaspoons of sugar to cut the acid
chop the garlic and onions put them in the pan with the butter. You want to sweat them. Cook them so the onions are translucent. Then add the tomatoes. Make sure you have taken off the skin and taken the seeds out. Chop them in to pieces. They will break down as you cook them. Then add the tomato paste. Simmer for about 20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Then add herbs and sugar. Cook about 10 minutes more. You may add more sugar if needed. It will appear chunky. You can blend it smooth if desired.
