Jill and I have a new way of making tomato sauce. It's a baked tomato sauce that our friend Laurie has been cooking for a while. It's baked and it has lots of butter and garlic. It's rich and the whole cloves of garlic are a spectacular addition.
Ingredients
2 Large cans (28 oz) whole tomatoes
16 Cloves of garlic, peeled. Yes - 16!Double it if you want to be bold. 16 is NOT bold.
½ cup Butter (1 stick). Cut into pieces.
2 tsp Salt
2 tsp Pepper
1 tsp Crushed Red Pepper
Directions
1
Preheat oven to 425.
2
Place tomatoes in a 9 x 13 casserole dish, mix in spices, spread garlic and butter pieces evenly around the dish, place in the oven.
3
Bake for 1 hour.
4
Take out of the oven, gently smash (can you really gently smash?) tomatoes and garlic cloves with a potato masher, and you are ready to serve!
