Easy recipe for canned tomatoes
Preparation of tomatoes
Wash your tomatoes thoroughly and cut them into slices.
Put them in the mixer until a sandy puree is obtained.
Cooking of tomato puree
Pour the puree into a large saucepan and bring to the boil.
While it heats up, regularly skip the foam that forms on the surface.
Keep cooking for a few more minutes to reduce the puree and concentrate the flavors.
Filling of jars
Dip your glass jars into boiling water to sterilise them. Let them dry in the open air.
Then fill them with hot tomato puree, adding a few basil leaves to perfume.
