Oven Roasted Tomato Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
• Place the halved tomatoes, onions, and garlic cloves on a baking sheet. Drizzle with half the olive oil and sprinkle with thyme, salt and pepper. Toss to coat well. Place the tomatoes cut-side down, and cook for 2 hours turning the tomatoes after 1 hour. After the second hour, remove the baking sheet, and set aside the unpeeled garlic. Place the rest of the vegetables and the pan juices in a food processor or blender. Add a tablespoon or two of water to the pan to scrape up any bits of flavor stuck onto the baking sheet and add to the food processor. Squeeze out the soft flesh of the roasted garlic into the food processor and add the remaining olive oil. Pulse the mixture until chunky, or puree until smooth, depending on desired consistency. Taste the sauce and season with salt, and pepper, if necessary.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Place the tomatoes in a 13-by-9-inch baking dish. Toss the tomatoes with the olive oil, oregano and garlic. Season heavily with salt and pepper. Roast the tomatoes until fully cooked, about 40 minutes.
• Once the tomatoes are cooked, place them in a blender and process until smooth. Check for seasoning and then serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Strain liquid from tomatoes and reserve for another use (works great for Bloody Marys or adding to tomato or minestrone soup).
• Divide the tomatoes between 2 sheet trays and spread into an even layer. Add 3 smashed garlic cloves, 2 sprigs oregano, 2 sprigs rosemary and 1 Pecorino rind to each tray. Drizzle half the olive oil over each tray. Sprinkle half the red pepper flakes over each tray and season with salt and pepper. Roast, rotating sheet trays halfway through, until the tomatoes are just beginning to char on the bottom, about 25 minutes.
• Add the tomatoes to a large saucepan and crush with a potato masher until you reach desired consistency. Bring to a simmer and season with salt and pepper, and drizzle with more olive oil.
• Cook the pasta 2 minutes less than indicated on the box instructions. Transfer cooked pasta to sauce in saucepan, toss and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Finish with butter and grated Pecorino.

Steps:

• In a deep lasagna pan, add the garlic, anchovies, olive oil, red pepper flakes and salt. Place the pan on the stovetop and saute for 5 to 7 minutes to soften. Remove from the heat and add the canned tomatoes and oregano; mix well.
• Transfer the pan to the oven and roast until the tomatoes are nicely charred on top, 45 minutes. Let cool, then blend to your liking with an immersion blender; we like our sauce a bit chunky, but feel free to puree if you choose.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a medium dutch oven, combine tomatoes, red wine, olive oil, ½ cup water, onion, garlic, basil, oregano, red pepper flakes, sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon black pepper. Bring to a boil over medium-high, and then transfer to oven. Roast, stirring occasionally, for 2 hours, until sauce is reduced and caramelized on the edges. Remove from oven, remove basil and oregano sprigs, and season to taste with salt and pepper. The sauce will stay in the refrigerator for 5 days.
• Variations:.
• MEAT SAUCE: Add ½ pound ground beef to a dutch oven at beginning of recipe, before roasting.
• VODKA SAUCE: Add ½ cup heavy cream to the sauce when finished roasting.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
• Add the tomatoes, olive oil, oregano, garlic, onion, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper and the red pepper flakes to a large Dutch oven or oven-safe pot with a lid. Stir so that everything is coated in oil and spices. Roast in the Dutch oven, uncovered, until the tomatoes start to soften and split, about 1 hour.
• Stir and flip the tomatoes, then cook until the tomatoes, garlic and onion are all browned and very soft, about 1 hour more. At this point everything should be easily smashed with the back of a spoon. Transfer the pot to the stove and keep covered.
• While the tomatoes finish roasting, bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil over high heat. Add 2 tablespoons salt and the pasta. Cook 2 minutes less than package instructions. Reserve 1 cup pasta water and drain the pasta.
• Add 1/2 cup of the pasta water to the cooked tomatoes and carefully blend with an immersion blender, tipping the pot slightly if necessary to fully submerge the blender (or transfer to a regular blender) and blend until smooth. Bring the blended sauce to a simmer over medium-high heat, then add the drained pasta and cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently. Adding more pasta water if the mixture needs to be saucier. Serve warm with a few basil leaves and a sprinkle of red pepper flakes.

Steps:

• Combine plum tomatoes, sun-dried tomatoes and their liquid, red chili-pepper flakes, red bell pepper, onion, garlic and broth (or water) in a saucepan. Simmer for 40 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Pass the sauce through a food mill or ricer. Add the basil leaves. Serve over pasta or use as a base for vegetable soup or in lasagna (recipe below).

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Arrange tomatoes in a 9-inch-by-13-inch baking dish. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast until tomatoes start to burst, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer tomatoes and juices to a bowl and stir in balsamic vinegar. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Place a sheet pan on the middle rack in the oven and preheat the oven to 400°F.
• Place the garlic cloves, onion, and Italian seasoning in a bowl and toss with 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
• Core the tomatoes and cut them in half.
• Carefully remove the hot sheet pan from the oven. Drizzle about 3 tablespoons of olive oil on the sheet pan and tilt and swirl to disperse.
• Place the tomatoes flesh side down on the sheet pan. Add the onion mixture around the tomatoes.
• Sprinkle with a heavy pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper.
• Bake for about 30-35 minutes, or until the tomato skins are wrinkly and the garlic cloves are soft.
• Remove the sheet pan from the oven. Let cool for 5 minutes.
• Carefully pull the skins from the tomatoes, leaving the tomatoes on the sheet pan.
• Remove the skins from the garlic cloves and return to the sheet pan.
• Sprinkle with sugar, balsamic vinegar, and a bit more salt and pepper. Mash the tomatoes a fork and stir to combine.
• Bake for another 25-30 minutes until thickened and hot. Let cool 10 minutes.
• Transfer to a blender or food processor, along with the basil leaves, and blend until smooth.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Use a sharp paring knife to core the tomatoes. Cut tomatoes in half; transfer to one large (or two smaller) rimmed baking sheet; add onion, carrots, garlic, and thyme.
• Toss tomato mixture with oil; season generously with salt and pepper. Spread in a single layer (turn tomatoes cut side down). Roast until tender, 45 minutes to 1 hour. If vegetables begin to brown too quickly, push them toward the center of the sheet.
• Using tongs or your fingers, peel off tomato skins; discard. Transfer mixture (including juices) to a blender; pulse several times, until chunky. Let cool completely; transfer to an airtight container.

Steps:

• Cut tomatoes length wise, take the core out. Put the halved tomatoes into a large bowl. Take the cores and put them into a blender, and set aside for later.
• Infuse the oil by putting the olive oil, green and red bell pepper, garlic, and shallot into another bowl, stir and microwave 30-45 seconds.
• Add thyme, basil, and rosemary to the halved tomatoes in the large bowl, and drizzle the oil mixture over the halved tomatoes, gently stir to coat.
• Lay the tomatoes cut side up on a baking sheet or a casserole dish (metal or glass). "I used glass".
• Pour the rest of the mixture over the tomatoes.
• Set oven to 400 degrees, and cook tomatoes till they are slightly brown, or softened for a lighter colored sauce (30 min.- 1 1/2 hour).
• Turn them over when they reach desired look. .
• Blend the tomato cores on high, and pour them into a pot, and set aside.
• After the tomatoes are done roasting in the oven, put them into the blender, and blend them on high as well.
• Add roasted tomatoes to the core mixture in the pot, stir and bring to a boil.
• If you wish, add splenda to calm down the acidity in the sauce.
• Simmer sauce for about 15-20 minute.
• Save for later: Put lemon juice on the bottom of a freezer safe container, and pour sauce on top of lemon juice. Freeze until you are ready to use. This will keep for several months in the freezer. When you are ready to use it, thaw, and add 1/4 cup of Cabernet Sauvignon wine, bring to a boil, and cook for several minutes until the alcohol is cooked out of the dish.
• Use now: Add lemon juice, and 1/4 cup of Cabernet Sauvignon wine, and bring to a boil, and cook for several minutes until the alcohol is cooked out of the dish.
• Serve as a condiment, over pasta, or over an Italian Turkey meat loaf.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
• Place tomato halves skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Add garlic cloves. Evenly drizzle tomatoes and garlic with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
• Roast in the preheated oven until tomatoes are bubbling, about 25 minutes. Increase heat to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Roast until tomatoes just begin to brown, 10 more minutes. Turn off the heat. Let tomatoes sit in the hot oven with the door closed until further caramelized, about 5 minutes.
• Transfer roasted tomatoes and garlic to a bowl. Add basil and use a wooden spoon to crush the mixture and break apart the tomatoes, leaving them a bit chunky. Remove peels, if desired. Serve over your favorite cooked pasta.
