Turning GARDEN Fresh Tomatoes into PIZZA Sauce!

[@apiecemaker1163]

I remember when you first started out with your itty bitty tomato seedlings and was so unsure if they would even survive. Now you have baskets sitting on your counter and jars of your sauce made from your harvest. 👏👏👏👏👏👏 yay you! Great job Rachel. Please try to rest. We’re here and not going anywhere. Feel better soon.

I just finished canning 22 pints of this pizza sauce. I love it so much. And I was amazed to see you using your roaster for tomatoes and picked up a second hand roaster for myself last year. It is such a good idea. I had a wee setback when it wouldn’t turn on this year. I’m single so I don’t have a handy husband to fix things. But thanks to KZbin I was able to fix it. It took longer to name the broken bit (ring terminal) and find where to buy it, than to replace it! But that’s all part of this lifestyle, when gardening or cooking or around the house, isn’t it? Never being afraid to try something new, even if you have to teach yourself. So thank you for always having positive encouragement. ❤️😊

[@kieraconte5874]

yay! I'm planning to can this soon too, great info. You're so brave for canning tomato's while wearing a white shirt! 🙌

[@charleengalway-bennett5288]

Hello Rachel, all the way from South Africa! In the past I have made jams & a few pickles, but never really considered other things, like my Grandma made. Your Channel has really inspired me to explore more homemade preserves. I made this recipe 2 days ago & Hubby, who is a pizza/pasta connoiseur, says it is delicious. Thank you for sharing your recipes

[@mariagarcia-po6kl]

Hi Rachel. You look much better today. In Today's last video, he told everyone you were not feeling well. I hope you are feeling much better today. What a great pizza video. It is so relaxing, and a lot of work. But it is so worth it. God Bless you Rachel. Take care of yourself. Love you. Maria.🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🍅🍕🍅🍅🍅🍅🍕🍕🍕🍕😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎🌡🌡🌡🌡🌡🌡🌡🌡🌡🌡😎😎😎😎😎👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@tammyjocooke-ov1nw]

The pings!!!🥰 always love my morning coffee and Rachel / Todd videos!!

[@ErinsTastyHeritage]

Rachael, I love you said that you put your canning recipes in a canning recipe book! I’m going to adopt that idea! I keep a recipe notebook but having a canning book seems helpful!!!

[@judyjohnson1012]

My favorite sound while canning is hearing those lids pop! I can’t wait to try this recipe!

[@niecieyukiye6654]

Beautiful!! Kudos to you for canning while not feeling well...you are definitely a huge inspiration to me.

[@amyjo987]

Ok. I've watched an ENORMOUS amount of your videos & I keep thinking....she's gonna explain that beautiful salt bowl someday.... Alas....no clues at all.....It looks Christmassy to me, is it? Is it a family heirloom? You must adore it, to keep it out all year long with that beautiful Christmas tree with the "heart star" on it....Just wondering. You've inspired me beyond measure in the areas of gardening & canning. So....thank you.....😊💕

[@charlainehigley8817]

Alpha Papa .. Rachel's salt bowl is from Pioneer Woman's dish line .. it's pretty.

[@mindyrussell9464]

The crud is going around. We've had it too. Glad you're feeling better. I made 22 half pints if pizza sauce yesterday!

[@postholedigger8726]

Great job, thanks for sharing your process. I have been cooking for many decades and in the past few years began cooking in larger batches. Two advantages of larger batches are being able to use fresh ingredients in grocery store quantities, and a reduction in cooking time for each individual meal. Instead of making tomato sauce for one meal in a frying pan, I now make the sauce in 4 to 5 gallon quantities. I put one gallon of sauce in a stainless steel hotel pan in the refrigerator and the other 4 gallons in 1 gallon lidded plastic storage containers in the freezer. Videos like this one showing the advantage of using a roaster to cook larger quantities of sauces and broths have been very helpful. I have found that allowing the tomatoes to ripen before cooking and making a vegetable broth from a finely minced mirepoix (onions, carrots, celery, peppers, cilantro) eliminates the need to add sugar to the sauce. This is how I make the mirepoix. kzbin.info/www/bejne/a3u9q2aJbLeFmJo I put the minced mirepoix and liquid in a 22 quart roaster and slow cook it for several hours. This needs to cook until the finely minced vegetables soften and essentially disappear into the liquid. I then add about 100 diced Roma tomatoes and cook everything for several more hours. This produces a richer better tasting sauce than the usual method of cutting the vegetables into large chunks and then throwing them away after they are cooked.

[@CharlieM-t7y]

Feel better soon Rachel! Sending you healing energy and prayers xo

[@bumblebee7982]

Yummy! I used to can & loved the obsession of it, like a busy bee.

[@janetgrooms4008]

The most beautiful sound ever hearing those lids pop

[@sheilavilla6707]

Pizza sauce, great idea! I have alot of tomatoes, and peppers too. My garden is a small one but it makes me so happy.

[@jackiecrispin]

Finally this morning I took the time to write your recipe in my book. This coming summer I'm going to try this.

[@rrsnyder591]

I made this recipe and my children love it so much!! It’s so easy to make the pizza from scratch even during a weekday! Thank you!

[@4beefarm265]

I canned tomato paste for the first time last week. I’ll be saving this for next year when I plant/grow more! Thanks for sharing 💚🌱

[@cathyl4622]

So did you use paste tomatoes? Did you add any tomato powder or lemon juice?

[@longarmsupplies]

Isn't hearing the lids snap the most satisfying sound ever?

[@artliferedo4490]

I just found your channel as this is my first year canning tomatoes. Can’t wait to try your pizza sauce recipe, looks delicious!

[@justpatty7328]

So happy you're on the mend. What a trooper to be canning already! Thank you for sharing your recipe. God bless!

[@mike1968442]

Love it! Home town girl (I’m from Rochester Hills, Mi) but now In Az. I don’t like snow. If you were close I would buy some from you. This year I’m going to can my pizza sauce too. Can’t wait!

[@catherinejones6481]

I’m watching this from my pergola during Sydney lockdown on a sunny day while chopping up home grown cumquats for marmalade. It’s like hanging with a girlfriend chewing the fat, unfortunately it is a one way conversation 😂

[@lucieengen7046]

You guys, this pizza sauce is supreme! Made it last year and making it again tomorrow. Thanks Rachael for sharing this recipe, we absolutely love it and plan on gifting some for Christmas 😊.

[@1870s]

Glad you liked it!!

[@briannatuttle1028]

Woohoo! Adding to my canning playlist 😍

[@jenanielson]

Glad you are feeling better. I would love, and pay for a collection of your canning recipes!

[@angiecox7628]

I hope you get well soon! Thanks for all you share!

[@susieann1217]

Instead of buying paste, have you tried dehydrating some of your tomatoes and adding them instead? Just wondering how that would work out. I have saved my skins before and added them to homemade chili and it worked well.

[@wildheart5086]

I make my own paste.

[@jswhosoever4533]

I plan to keep all my skins this year to dehydrate and grind. I want to make my own paste but not sure if I'll have enough tomatoes. I've never done either before so wish me luck😊

[@67BillyJean]

I kept and dehydrated all my skins last year and love them for my cooking, but man it’s a lot of nit picky tedious work. Spreading them out on dehydrator trays. lol Especially when your bringing in so much harvest.

[@_thatchickchris8246]

Looks amazing! I have some garden veggie sauce just about to come off pressure. Smells so good!

[@mapleviewfarm1]

Looks delish! Hope you are feeling better!

[@regularmompantrylife2587]

I made this last year and it was our favorite recipe of the ones we tried. I found I had about 25 of the bigger cans of commercial tomatoes that had a best by date of today to Sept. 1st. I also had some tomato paste with similar dates. I'm going to give your recipe a try using those. I'm sure it will be good although maybe a little less bright and summery tasting.

[@robertschroeder1978]

Rachael & Todd, thanks again for the video and canning info. Will need to give this a try soon. (Rockford MI)

[@carolmcmillan1108]

Love watching you fill your grocery store 👌😊

[@cassileigharts]

I just made these today. I made your 3 for 1 last week. You are correct in it being amazing! I have 30 pounds of tomatoes left of my season. The inspiration is top notch.

[@gretchenarrant8334]

Absolutely love your videos! Thanks for sharing.

[@AcornHillHomestead]

I think you hit it out of the park. I’ve made a few batches of this sauce in half pints since its just the two of us. I topped a cracker thin crust and it worked out so nice since the sauce is nice and thick. I also made an open faced sandwich with veggies and cheese. Wowee!! Bye bye store bought!! Thanks so much for sharing this. I wish we had a roaster. 10lbs at a time is tedious in the cock pot but its a great use of the tomatoes this year. Only 12 more jars to go. It really is easy and little work. I like recipes where I don’t peel tomatoes and this recipe works great with the blending stick.

[@cyndygaastra]

Thank you for this video. I want to start canning again, so I started with pizza sauce. I'm watching lots of your videos.

[@pamschonfarber1041]

Power through girl, hope you feel better!

[@denisebrady6858]

Oh Rachel so glad to see you up & about xxxx. I am making mine tomorrow as winter time is tomato time for us here & I have an abundance- I will definitely be trying your recipe with a couple of tweaks as well. Cheers Denise- Australia

[@sandrinefresne6575]

Thanks for the great recipe. I would love to have a look into your book ! Or be a fly in your kitchen … love ❤️ what you do

[@jswhosoever4533]

Love that ending...pop...pop......pop!

[@dawncatalano7443]

Hi! Yes, that is some beautiful garlic! Loved the video and I hope you are feeling better. Thank you for teaching me!

[@BecomingaFarmGirl]

Continue to take good care, Rachel! Canning tomato sauce is next on my summer canning list. This looks so good!!!

[@alliwags4929]

I used this recipe last summer and loved it. I just pulled the rest of my tomatoes from the freezer and made another batch because last summer’s is all gone! Plan is to make at least double this summer. Thanks for sharing! ❤

[@lanabisson2675]

Rachel I hope your feeling better soon. Pizza sauce is on my list to can, as well as my own ROTEL tomato mix.

[@pamelapitrone7639]

Looks yummy! Hope you feel better!

[@jeanettefoster4051]

I will be making this. And your tomatoes are beautiful setting there on counter

[@rachelschmaltz3092]

This looks so good. Im going to be doing tomato products for the 1st time this year. So excited. Thank you so much for teaching me. God bless

[@jackienoel2864]

That is really pretty!! Hope you feel better!!

[@amybrown8528]

Summer illness is the woorrst. Glad you're feeling better. This isn't much different than the spaghetti sauce, except no additional veggies and a bit thicker? Thanks for sharing ❤️

[@loriy7532]

Hey there Rachel , Sorry your feeling out of sorts , maybe you need to just chill for now. We will wait for you. Your sauce looks great. My hubby thought it would be great for me to make pizza sauce this year. I usually just put up tomatoes and tomato sauce with big sprigs of sweet Basil in the jar. I am going to do the pizza sauce tomorrow, happily .....

[@cheakychic1]

It's looks beautiful Rachel !!

[@jenboyles5381]

Looks beautiful! I did tomato sauce w days ago and it was a much easier with the no peel method. I also made the blueberry jam with the chia seeds the other day. I am going to wait 2 weeks to open and try it. I only let it sit about an hour or so and it looks a bit seedy still, which is fine in the end. I'll let ya know how we like it.

[@sandrabeauchamp4207]

Sooo happy you fill much better amen 🙏

[@merje6307]

I made it last year and it was my favourite pizza sauce. This year I have to make double 😀 Thank you!!

[@PenntuckytheCrag]

Yea. Thanks so much for sharing

To not feel good, you look beautiful! Feel better soon! Thanks for the recipe!

[@emilymclain477]

Wait, grilled pizza sandwiches?!? I need to see this!!!

[@1870s]

Never filmed it before. Thank grilled cheese, but inside you put mozzarella cheese, some pizza sauce, and pepperoni. Add some fresh basil if you have any on hand.

[@emilymclain477]

@@1870s That sounds AMAZING! Thanks for all of the inspiration!

[@prrcdmnl]

Can’t believe you did all that cooking with a fever and still not one hundred percent! You sure made a wonderful pizza sauce. Thank you so much! Now to look for your spaghetti sauce! 💕

[@wingwalker2458]

Do you taste the lemon juice after the canning process.? If so, you could pressure can them instead.

[@cindynielson4231]

What a trooper, love seeing Wonder Woman at work. TFS

[@sherry2836]

I love your pizza sauce. With so many tomatoes, I wonder if you and Todd could tell us the flavor of the varieties you grow? Not really a taste test but more of a personal best. Thanks!

I freeze dry a batch of sliced tomatoes and use that instead of tomato paste and it uses up some of those extra tomatoes

I love that I discovered and now sometimes use, Tattler lids... but GEEZ there is something that is indescribably satisfying about that "PING"... :)

[@chilli_lover7181]

So glad I found your channel. I must have missed it but why the lemon juice? Does it affect the canning process or the longevity of the sauce? What happens if I didn't add the lemon juice?

[@valjalava1951]

Just wondering how long to can this if iam doing it in 1/2 pints and how much lemon juice would I add thanks so much Val

[@oceangolf3076]

I made this 2 days ago. We’re gonna make pizza subs today. I can’t wait. It sure tasted delicious out of the pan!

[@stephen12264]

Hi ya'll this looks absolutely delicious. I bet it would make a wonderful chili as well. My wife likes a thicker chili than I do she would absolutely love this. Thanks guy's for a wonderful looking recipe. I'm very glad to see you feeling better. You are in my prayers of course. Heal fast feel better and thank God. God Bless.

[@janetlavoie2441]

[@MatthewSherriff85]

This is great timing, thanks. I have a freezer full pf tomatoes from last year here in Australia i need to use before the new ones start coming in, and i buy a lot of pizza sauce so i was considering this.

OOOhh, the 'POP' 😍💕😍

[@lakesidehomesteadwithdavea5757]

Rosemary? Well that’s a new one for me! Must try!!!

[@btrano1212]

I don't usually like Rosemary. Does this change the taste of pizza sauce?

I got to get one of those nesco cookers that would make it so easy I like that you don't deseed them or peel thats really easy. Glad u feeling better, but rest up and hope you continue to feel better ❤

I got a large roaster at Goodwill. They always have several $5-$10.

Do you have a link to your recipe book? I love the look of it and would like to get one.

Do you have a juice press? I am curious about them.

[@catracampolieto8989]

I can't wait to can spaghetti and pizza sauces. My tomatoes are trickling in. I have some in the freezer. My tomatoes just started blushing last week. I hope I'll get enough green beans to actually pressure can something. I've been blanching carrots and green beans. Not enough at one time coming in. Hope you feel better very soon. Sending prayers for healing.

[@carolsferra3582]

This is fantastic!!!!! I however cannot believe you had no sauce on your shirt in the end lol!!! That would have never happened in my kitchen no matter how careful I was!!!!!

[@Shelzbells]

Oh I agree that is some really nice garlic. I love the stuff, and could eat garlic in everything haha. Your pizza sauce looks Beautiful, perfect thickness. Ill bet it is the BOMB!!!

[@lindapoe4124]

Oh my goodness. I made this yesterday and I will never buy pizza sauce again. Thanks so much Rachel!!
