Simple tomato sauce recipe for canning

Wash the tomatoes in a sink filled with water.

De-stem the tomatoes and chop them into quarters, cutting out any bad spots.

Place the chopped tomatoes into a large pot.

Add enough water to the pot to cover the tomatoes.

Add the whole clove of garlic, basil, and oregano to the pot.

Cover the pot with a lid and let it simmer for a while.

Check the tomatoes; they should look soft and ready for blending.

Use a Cuisinart Smart Stick (hand blender) to blend the mixture until smooth, leaving some small chunks if desired.

Run the blended sauce through a water bath canner for preservation.
