Re: Who here uses fresh tomatoes(not canned) to make homemade sauce?

I do - you have to peel the tomatoes (score the bottom [with an X] and plop into boiling water for 2 min - scoop them out and peel) then squeeze or scoop out the seeds...and chop, dice or leave whole - whichever is your preference.

ETA: I think anything that uses fresh ingredients tastes better...jmo.

You have to peel an cut up the tomatoes. Cook them until they are very soft then put them through a strainer (I don't like my sauce chunky). I cook mine in EVOO, water and fresh basil.

I have always heard that the reason you use canned and not fresh is because fresh tomatoes can be inconsistant in taste and are only in season for part of the year.
