Homemade Tomato Sauce

• 8-10 ripe tomatoes, chopped
• 1 onion, chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tsp dried oregano
• 1 tsp dried basil
• 1 tsp sugar
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• Salt and pepper to taste

Recipe Notes:  Making tomato sauce from scratch has never been easier with your Dutch oven. The VAV GET Dutch oven retains heat, allowing the tomatoes to break down perfectly, resulting in a rich and flavorful sauce. This can be canned or used fresh for pasta dishes, pizza, or as a dip.

Instructions:

• Heat olive oil in the Dutch oven over medium heat and sauté onions and garlic until softened.
• Add the chopped tomatoes, oregano, basil, sugar, salt, and pepper. Stir and bring to a simmer.
• Cook the sauce for 45-60 minutes, stirring occasionally until thickened.
• Use an immersion blender for a smooth consistency, or leave it chunky for a rustic sauce.
