Garden to Table - Roasted Tomato Sauce

Garden Bounty

Paste, big boy and super sweet grape tomatoes fresh from the vine, a mini-eggplant and cayenne pepper, and a fistful of fresh basil, thyme and parsley from the herb garden.



 Sliced and arrayed on baking sheets with olive oil, salt and pepper. One onion and half a head of garlic (wrapped separately in foil with oil) were added to the party courtesy of the grocery store, then all were roasted at 450F for about 45 minutes.


 Meanwhile a cup or two of homemade chicken stock defrosted...


 ... just waiting for those roasted toms...


 ... eggplant, onions and garlic.


And couple of blasts from the stick blender just to break up the big pieces. DELICIOUS.
