Welcome to Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date.
This is some spaghetti sauce I made way back in the summer using 10 fresh tomatoes when they were plentiful. You can alternatively use 2 cans of fresh tomatoes. I added butter, olive oil, onions, garlic, bay leaf, basil, oregano, parsley, red pepper, salt, sugar, black pepper and simmered it for 2 hours, mashing with a potato masher.
It is up to you if you want to skin the tomatoes beforehand.
And here is the Venetian carnival mask ACEO (2 1/2" x 3 1/2") that I drew for the Art Date.
The sauce looks great there. The art is a little wicked looking
ReplyDeleteYummy!
ReplyDeleteI have "old" tomatoes, too and will make sauce - thank you for the tip with the butter!
ReplyDeleteLove your mask, too. I really thought "people" will come up with other masks, glad nobody did so far!
The sauce looks delicious! I really like the ingredients you added. And cute artwork, Christine, as always!

ReplyDeleteNice sauce tomato
ReplyDeleteYour tomato sauce looks delicious, Christine. I sometimes start a tomato sauce with fresh tomatoes, but I always remove the skins. Great Venetian carnival mask. I dearly love Venice, and I've seen many beautiful masks in shop windows there. Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome Venetian Carnival mask ... I wouldn't even have thought of that, and yet as soon as I saw it, I thought Perfect!!! Love your recipe for Spaghettis sauce ... actually it is almost identical to how I make mine except I have never added red pepper. I think I may have to try that because I think it would give a real snap to the flavor. Yumm, Christine to all of it :)
