Amazingly simple, I noticed this recipe in an issue of Edible Boston, a magazine that celebrates local foods and seasonal harvests for the Greater Boston area. The recipe is credited to Taxia Cullen.

1 large pot (change servings and units)

Ingredients

5 lbs ripe tomatoes
3 garlic cloves, minced
3 tablespoons olive oil
salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Directions

1
Wash & core the tomatoes.
2
Place core side up on a cutting board and cut in half so that you have a core half and a bottom half. Pick out all of the seeds from the tomatoes.
3
Using a box grater, grate the cut sides of the tomatoes until you end up with only the skins. Discard the skins.
4
Preheat a large saucepan over medium high heat.
5
Pour in the olive oil and garlic. Stir for 1 minute.
6
Add all the tomato pulp and bring to a simmer.
7
Simmer 20-30 minutes to evaporate most of the tomato water.
8
Season to taste with salt & freshly ground pepper.

OPTIONAL: Let cool completely. Store in individual plastic containers & freeze excess.
