Roasted Tomato Pasta Sauce Recipes

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.

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:

• Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat to 475 degrees F. Quarter the tomatoes, then scoop the seeds and pulp into a sieve set over a bowl (reserve the tomatoes). Press on the seeds and pulp to extract the juice (you should have about 1/2 cup). Chop the tomatoes and toss with 3 tablespoons olive oil on a rimmed baking sheet; season with salt. Toss the zucchini with 3 tablespoons olive oil on a separate baking sheet; season with salt and pepper. Roast, switching the position of the pans halfway through, until tender and browned in spots, 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta as the label directs; reserve 1 cup cooking water, then drain.
• Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic; cook 2 minutes. Add the cherry peppers; cook 1 minute. Stir in the tomato paste, then the reserved tomato juice and 1/2 cup cooking water. Bring to a boil; simmer until reduced by half, 5 minutes. Add the pasta, vegetables, basil and parmesan to the skillet; season with salt. Cook, tossing, 1 minute, adding more of the reserved cooking water as needed to loosen.

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:

• Heat the oven to 325 degrees. Drain the tomatoes, then transfer them to a baking sheet. Gently break the tomatoes up with your hands or kitchen scissors into a mix of big and little chunks. Stir in the garlic, olive oil, hot sauce, if using, and salt.
• Roast, stirring occasionally (and more frequently after the first hour of cooking), until the tomatoes turn dark red and the edges begin to caramelize, about 2 hours. Mash with a fork to break up the garlic and any remaining chunks of tomato.
• Bring a large pot or Dutch oven of heavily salted water to the boil. Cook your pasta al dente according to package directions. Reserve 1 cup of the pasta water, and drain the pasta. Return the pot to the stove, turn the heat to medium-high, then add the tomato sauce and 1/2 cup of pasta water. Let simmer until combined, glossy and saucy, about a minute or 2, adding more pasta water as needed. Add the pasta and toss to coat.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°. Grease a 13-by-9-inch baking dish with one-third of the oil.
• Place the tomatoes cut side up in the dish.
• In a small bowl, combine the bread crumbs, cheeses, and garlic and toss with a fork to mix well. Sprinkle the bread-crumb mixture over the tomatoes, making sure that each cut side is well covered with the crumb mixture. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake until the tomatoes are cooked through and starting to brown on top, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, or until al dente. Time the pasta so it finishes cooking about the time the tomatoes are ready to come out of the oven.

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:

• Preheat the oven 400°f.
• Slice tomatoes in half, set aside.
• Pour the olive oil onto a large baking sheet and spread it around the sheet.
• Sprinkle evenly the garlic, herbs, sugar, salt and pepper over the oil.
• Place the tomatoes cut side down onto the baking sheet.
• Roast for about 30-40 minutes, or until the skins start to lift from the tomatoes.
• Allow to cool.
• Remove the skins and put the sauce into a large bowl and break up the flesh with a fork.
• Reheat sauce if using immediately.
