Notes

  • Try to use the brand Cento San Marzano Peeled Tomatoes for this recipe because this is whats going to give you the same taste as Roas.
  • Feel free to +/-  the sugar because not all tomatoes are created equally and acidity might be different for each canned tomatoes.
  • You can let the sauce simmer on med/low heat up to an hour if you have time, but 20 mins is good enough.
  • Once sauce is completely cooled, transfer into ziplock bags and place in freezer, good for 3-6 months.
  • If you want the sauce to be smoother in consistency, run the immersion blender a few times and blend until you have the desired consistency.
