To prepare the sauce, you need to select well-ripened tomatoes, without signs of spoilage or rotting. You can remove the skin of tomatoes, or you can cook with it. You can remove the skin by first blanching the tomatoes for 1-2 minutes. You can steam it and rub it through a fine metal sieve. Or maybe a smart technique can come to the rescue - a blender. I myself first grind all the ingredients in a blender, then boil the sauce.

Since the tomatoes in this dish are crushed, it doesn’t matter what they look like. That is, it is quite possible to buy a discounted product that is slightly crushed and damaged (only the damaged goods are mercilessly cut out in the process with a sharp knife). The only difficulty: bruised tomatoes are more difficult to peel. And in order for the tomato sauce to turn out beautifully homogeneous, it’s better to get rid of it.
Although you don’t have to worry too much about this - if the blender is powerful, then all the peel will grind into dust, it won’t be noticeable.
As stated above, even wrinkled and slightly damaged goods are suitable, since this can be corrected. But this rule only applies when you cook the sauce. If you cook raw, choose tomatoes that are perfectly ripe, without blemishes, and fleshy.
If you have something against the seeds, you can get rid of them in two stages. At the first stage, rub the tomatoes with your hands through a sieve of such a size that they cannot pass through. At the second stage, you process the resulting pulp with an immersion blender.
Ideally, the resulting tomato mixture is only ready to turn into a full-fledged tomato sauce when it is boiled in a saucepan to ⅔ of its original volume. Now you can add spices to it - the recipe will tell you which ones. If you want to choose your own seasoning mixture, then the following are suitable for the sauce:
From the above you need to select a maximum of 4-5 positions.
In addition to tomatoes, the following do well in this sauce: bell peppers, carrots, onion, fresh apples, hot capsicum.
As preservatives you can use: salt, sugar, vegetable oil, vinegar (apple, table, wine), citric acid.

This original technology for preparing tomato sauce at home using a recipe for the winter can be used in several cases at once. How to make thick tomato sauce without starch and boiling? We assure you that it is easier than you think.
Cooking time: 2 hours. Servings: 1-1.5 l.
Ingredients for tomato sauce:
Use ripened soft tomatoes for the sauce - pink, yellow or red, whatever you have available. They need to be washed and sorted, discarding those that are spoiled or too green.
Next, you need to get rid of the skins on the tomatoes. If you have a small number of tomatoes, for example, 1-2 kg, you can pour boiling water over them, after making cross-shaped cuts. After 5 minutes, drain the boiling water and pour ice water over the scalded tomatoes. The peel of these tomatoes is very easy to remove. For a slightly larger volume of tomatoes, we suggest using a grater. Take half a tomato in your hand and rub the pulp. The entire “skin” remains in your hand - throw it away and take the next half of the tomato. Well, for a large harvest, take a regular juicer. With its help you will get rid of not only the peel, but also the seeds.
After scalding, cut the peeled pulp into halves, cutting out the stalks.
Now from these halves in any convenient way (with a blender, food processor, meat grinder) we get the most common tomato juice. I just want to put it on the stove right away, but since today’s recipe for tomato sauce is without boiling, let’s see what needs to be done next!
Pour all the tomato juice into a colander with gauze or cloth and... That's all! Of course, you will need to wait a few hours until all the excess clear liquid is separated from the red tomato pulp. Depending on the initial volume of juice, approximately 1 liter of juice – 1 hour. But this time can be spent on something else - useful or pleasant, but not on standing over a hot stove and constantly stirring the juice.
After 1-2 hours we see the following picture: a thick tomato mass has formed in a colander with gauze.
We remove the colander and look into the pan - this liquid would need to be boiled for a long time, wasting time and effort. By the way, you don’t have to pour it out, but use it to prepare okroshka and other summer first courses, where they use an acidified liquid like kvass or ayran.
Salt the already thick tomato sauce and add sugar to taste and need.
Place on the stove and bring to a boil, simmer for 5-7 minutes. You can make it even thicker, and for this you will need a maximum of 15-20 minutes, because... The sauce initially has a rather thick consistency.
