Change of Pace
I like to throw in a change of pace every once in a while, presuming I have actually developed a pace. Something I like to add are recipes that I collected when I was operating Your Smart Kitchen and there are lots of them. If you need a recipe for something special, let me know.
Here is one that I used from July. It might still be a bit hot for this but I like pasta and can have it any time hot or cold.
Homemade Pasta Sauce
Ingredients
- 1 onion
- 9 medium size beefsteak tomatoes
- 1 (6 ounce) can Italian-style tomato paste
- 5 cloves garlic
- 2 tsp olive oil
- 7 cups water
- ½ cup red wine (merlot)
- 3 tbsp Italian seasoning
- 2 tbsp dried basil
- Fresh oregano
- 1 tsp white sugar
- Pinch crushed red pepper
Directions
Use a food mill to naturally process the tomatoes, milling and pureeing them. Chop the onion and garlic and sauté in olive oil for 3-5 minutes in a large Dutch oven (preferably cast iron) over medium heat. Stir in the tomatoes, tomato paste, water, Italian seasoning, basil, oregano, sugar, wine, and crushed red pepper. Adjust heat to a simmer and let be for 3-5 hours, stirring on occasion.
Note: You can do this in a slow cooker just as well as a Dutch oven
Enjoyed best over al dente pasta and a side of garlic bread.
